Horizontal-mount OpenVPX Backplanes
Pixus Technologies, a provider of embedded computing and enclosure solutions, has announced new OpenVPX backplanes designed for horizontal-mount enclosures. The horizontal-mount backplanes can be placed into 1U-4U tall 19” rackmount OpenVPX enclosures. They provide enough space to have three 3U slots or one 3U and one 6U slot side-by-side. So, a wide range of configurations and size options are available. The backplanes are typically designed to support at least PCIe Gen3 speeds, but higher speed options are offered.

Phase Locked Oscillators
Eravant’s phase locked oscillator line utilizes high performance DRVCO technology to generate high quality microwave signals. Externally referenced SOPs require a crystal oscillator to achieve exceptional phase noise performance. These oscillators are hermetically sealed and can operate from -40°C to +70°C to satisfy the rigorous environmental requirements.

TEST & MEASUREMENT
High Performance Analyzer Without Limits
The SignalShark Real Time Spectrum Analyzer is designed to be an open platform. Its integrated powerful computer running Windows 10 eliminates limitations of traditional test instruments. So the SignalShark family communicates in standard languages like SCPI or VITA 49, while using and supporting the popular formats in common use in the scientific field. If additional software is required—for instance to connect additional sensors—users can run it directly on the analyzer, saving the need for an external PC.
