Keysight launches ‘Test-Drive’ seminars to showcase design, test

Jan. 28, 2017

Keysight Technologies has announced a series of one-day “Test-Drive” seminars, which will offer hands-on experience and presentations for Keysight RF signal analyzers, network analyzers, oscilloscopes, and bench instruments. Attendees will learn how the latest test and measurement solutions are used in real-world environments.

Each seminar will describe tools and techniques for optimizing RF transmitter and receiver measurements using the FieldFox microwave handheld analyzer, the X-Series signal analyzer, and the X-Series RF vector signal generator. Hands-on examples will involve characterizing the S-parameters of a filter and measuring interference, characterizing the phase noise of a CW signal, demodulating an LTE signal and determining EVM and ACP, and locating a low-level signal in the presence of noise.

Other topics include analog design (including test and verification), digital design (with a focus on capturing, isolating, and analyzing fast-signal errors) and power design (including characterization of low-power devices). Relevant Keysight products include the InfiniiVision oscilloscope, TrueVolt DMM, TrueForm waveform generator, and BenchVue software.

Each seminar will conclude with a session on power-integrity measurement and analysis using the Infiniium oscilloscope and Power Rail probe.

The first seminars are slated for February 7, 8, and 9 in Santa Clara. Thirty-two additional seminars will take place at locations throughout the United States and Canada through June 29.
