Meyerson, VP, Innovation, IBM. “SiGe continues to be capable of delivering the performance necessary for a new generation of high-performance test instrumentation. Given the advantages provided by SiGe, it clearly remains the semiconductor of choice for a wide range of high-speed test applications.”
Investment Protection Over the past decade, Tektronix has consistently anticipated the proper levels of bandwidth support for the leading serial standards, and is an active participant in such bodies as the IEEE Society, PCI-SIG, SATA-IO and USDB-IF. The Tektronix Performance Oscilloscope Investment Protection Program provides customers with a cost-effective migration path to higher- performance oscilloscopes as their needs evolve. If interested, customers are urged to contact their Tektronix Account Manager to discuss future migration plans.
Availability of initial Tektronix product deployments using this 8HP SiGe technology are expected in 2011.
