Granite River Labs (GRL), a USB-IF authorized test center, today announced the USB 3.0 Protocol Performance and Stress Test Software Suite (GRL-USB3-PROTO). GRL-USB3-PROTO allows USB developers quickly optimize the performance and robustness of their USB 3.0 products in development while unlocking the full potential of their Teledyne LeCroy Voyager USB 3.0 Analyzer/Exerciser.

Cirexx International is presenting the new ECLIPS technology this week at the International Microwave Symposium (IMS) at the Tampa Convention Center.  ECLIPS (Embedded Cooling Layer – Integrated Power System) is a system of producing high-power RF and microwave Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) employing an embedded low-CTE, thermally engineered metalized layer which has superior thermal conductivity characteristics.

Indium Corporation's vice president of technology, Dr. Ning-Cheng Lee, will share his expertise at the International Union of Materials Research Societies – International Conference on Electronic Materials (IUMRS-ICEM) from June 10-14 at Taipei World Trade Center Nangang Exhibition Hall in Taipei, Taiwan.

Georgios Sklivanitis and Emrecan Demirors with the Software Defined Networks (SDN) Lab in the Department of Electrical Engineering of the State University of New York at Buffalo have won Nutaq's 2014 Software Defined Radio Academic US Contest.

Rigol Technologies, Inc. announces their latest series of products: two new high-performance, high frequency spectrum analyzers built on the extremely popular DSA800 series platform. The DSA832 and DSA875 expand the DSA800 series spectrum analyzer family to 3.2 and 7.5 GHz respectively. With specifications that far exceed the DSA815-TG these new instruments enable direct measurements of higher performance signals and systems.

M/A-COM Technology Solutions Inc. (“MACOM”), a leading supplier of high performance RF, microwave, and millimeter wave products, announced that its wafer fabrication facility in Lowell, Massachusetts, has been accredited by the Department of Defense (DoD) as a Category 1A Trusted Foundry. This DoD accreditation distinguishes MACOM as a trusted manufacturer of integrated circuits (ICs) for classified and unclassified U.S. military and aerospace applications.

TriQuint Semiconductor Inc., a leading RF solutions supplier and technology innovator, is showcasing its new, high performance technologies at the IEEE International Microwave Symposium / Microwave Theory and Techniques exhibition June 3-5, 2014 in Tampa, Florida.

Agilent Technologies Inc., announces the Agilent HDMI 2.0 6G test solution has been selected by Simplay Labs after the HDMI Forum certified it as an official compliance test tool.

Computer Simulation Technology (CST) announces new features to automate workflows for field source coupling and multiphysics simulation using its System Assembly and Modeling (SAM) framework at MTT-S IMS, booth # 1423.

Measurement technology is constantly evolving, in part because of its close ties with software and computer control. One of the more significant enhancements to RF/microwave test equipment in recent years has been the growing availability of key measurement functions in the form of easy-to-use Universal Serial Bus (USB) modules. With each new USB test module, RF/microwave engineers receive another option for assembling an automated measurement system that can be controlled fully under USB control.
