TRADE NEWS: Agilent Technologies Wins DesignVision Award for J-BERT N4903A with Built-in Clock Data Recovery.SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE NYSE See: New York Stock Exchange :A) today announced that it is honored to win the DesignVision Award 2007 in the test and measurement category for its J-BERT N4903A, a high-performance serial BERT (Bit Error Rate Test) An analysis of network transmission efficiency that computes the percentage of bits received in error from the total number sent. with an industry-first built-in, compliant and tunable clock data recovery (CDR (1) See CD-R and extension. (2) (Call Detail Reporting) See call accounting. (3) (Common Data Rate) A standard sampling rate for digital video for 480i and 576i systems. The rate is 13.5 MHz. See ITU-R BT. ). The International Engineering Consortium (IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission, Geneva, Switzerland, www.iec.ch) An organization that sets international electrical and electronics standards founded in 1906. It is made up of national committees from over 60 countries. IEC - International Electrotechnical Commission ), which presents the DesignVision Awards, acknowledges individuals and companies that offer innovative and unique applications, products, technologies and services of impact to the semiconductor industry. IEC President John Janowiak commented, "Our DesignVision Awards honor those catalyzing positive change in high-technology, business and academia, completely in line with the IEC's mission. We are delighted to recognize the DesignVision finalists and share the best design advancements and innovators with the entire industry." The J-BERT N4903A is the only complete 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 test solution. It provides integrated and calibrated jitter sources for stressed eye testing of gigabit receivers. The new compliant and tunable CDR is also integrated into the J-BERT box. This enables engineers in characterization and validation labs to get precise jitter budget results for clock-less devices. Engineers save test setup time by using J-BERT's new library of compliant CDR settings for many popular standards, such as PCI Express(r), Serial Advanced Technology Attachment (storage) Serial Advanced Technology Attachment - (SATA, Serial ATA) A computer bus technology primarily designed for transfer of data to and from a hard disk. SATA is the successor to Advanced Technology Attachment (ATA), which was given the retronym Parallel ATA (PATA) to (SATA (Serial ATA) A serial version of the ATA (IDE) interface, which has been the de facto standard hard disk interface for desktop PCs for more than two decades. The original Parallel ATA (PATA) interface was launched in 1986. ), Fibre Channel, fully buffered DIMM Fully Buffered DIMM (or FB-DIMM) is a memory technology which can be used to increase reliability, speed and density of memory systems. Conventionally, data lines from the memory controller have to be connected to data lines in every DRAM module. , Common Electrical interface (CEI CEI Competitive Enterprise Institute CEI Conferenza Episcopale Italiana (Italian bishop conference) CEI Central European Initiative CEI Comitato Elettrotecnico Italiano (Italian Electrotechnical Committee) ), 10 Gb Ethernet and XFP/XFI. "We are pleased to be honored by the IEC for the J-BERT N4903A with CDR," said Sigi Gross, vice president and general manager of Agilent's Digital Verification Solutions Division. "Agilent continues to demonstrate its leadership by continuously introducing innovative physical layer test solutions." Finalists were chosen by a panel of 96 industry-leading judges from DesignCon's Technical Program Committee.
