TRADE NEWS: Agilent Technologies Introduces Industry's First High-Speed Serial Pulse Data Generator; Flexible Stimulus Solution Enables High-Quality Characterization and Validation of Next-Generation Devices.PALO ALTO Palo Alto, city, California Palo Alto (păl`ō ăl`tō), city (1990 pop. 55,900), Santa Clara co., W Calif.; inc. 1894. Although primarily residential, Palo Alto has aerospace, electronics, and advanced research industries. , Calif. -- Agilent Technologies This article needs sources or references that appear in reliable, third-party publications. Alone, primary sources and sources affiliated with the subject of this article are not sufficient for an accurate encyclopedia article. Inc. (NYSE NYSE See: New York Stock Exchange :A) today announced the industry's first high-speed, serial pulse data generator with stimulus capability up to 7 GHz, enabling computer and semiconductor test engineers to accurately characterize components being developed for the next-generation serial buses used in high-speed transmission systems. Accurate high-speed stimulus is crucial to ensuring signal integrity. The new Agilent 81141A allows engineers, for the first time, to conduct reliable and accurate physical layer tests by providing precision low-jitter signals and offering full control of data streams for stress tests. Its linear delay modulation enables fast and ultraprecise jitter A flicker or fluctuation in a transmission signal or display image. The term is used in several ways, but it always refers to some offset of time and space from the norm. For example, in a network transmission, jitter would be a bit arriving either ahead or behind a standard clock cycle tolerance and jitter transfer measurements. "The combination of multiple data formats such as RZ, R1 and NRZ (Non-Return-to-Zero) A data transmission method in which the 0s and 1s are represented by different polarities, typically positive for 0 and negative for 1. See NRZI. NRZ - Non Return to Zero with sequencing, trigger capability and high-speed frequency is unique in the market and critical for the next-generation high-speed technology wave," said Siegfried Gross, vice president and general manager of Agilent's Digital Verification Solutions division. "High-speed design starts with the physical layer and its signal integrity." Versatile, high-quality and the most precise data signals are the key contributions of the 7 GHz pulse data generator. Other features include: --Data formats RZ, R1 and NRZ, with flexible parameters and fast transition times for high-quality waveforms and eye diagram measurements. --Pattern and sequence capabilities enabling stimulus signals for the entire range of digital high-speed serial buses. --Linear delay modulation up to 1 GHz for jitter tolerance testing. U.S. Pricing and Availability The Agilent 81141A 7 GHz serial pulse data generator is available now for $88,000, with shipments starting in September 2005.
