Keysight Technologies Inc. announced new versions of its IO Libraries Suite and Command Expert software products. The two software updates provide increased capability and improved usability. IO Libraries Suite 17 is the next generation of instrument control and with the latest version of Command Expert, users will find it even easier to make measurements and send signals.

Keysight Technologies, Inc. introduced the Keysight EEsof EDA 5G Baseband Exploration Library. Providing ready-to-use reference signal processing intellectual property (IP) for 5G technology research, this industry-first library dramatically increases productivity for system architects and baseband physical layer designers. 

Keysight Technologies Inc. announced it has received SC21 (Supply Chains for the 21^st Century) Silver Award status by the ADS Group, a U.K. aerospace, defense, security and space trade organization. The award presentation was held at the Finmecannica-Selex ES Edinburgh facility in Edinburgh Scotland. Phil Curnock, head of supply chain at the ADS Group; Keysight’s SC21 sponsors Amanda Smith, head of asset management; and Fern Scott, procurement manager for Airbus Defence and Space Limited, presented the award to Keysight Technologies U.K.

Keysight Technologies Inc. announced sponsorship of the B4G MIMO Lab, part of National Taiwan University’s (NTU) High-Speed Radio Frequency and mmWave Center. Keysight also announced that is has joined the B4G/5G Technology Forum. The lab is one of the projects at the center aiming to develop key components used in Beyond 4G and 5G mobile communication systems.

The “Solutions for RF Power Amplifier Test” application noteprovides insight into making faster, repeatable RF power amplifier tests with envelope tracking and digital pre-distortion using a range of test system techniques, and modular signal generation and analysis.

Keysight Technologies Inc. announced the availability of its Method of Implementation (MOI) document for the transmitter/receiver (Tx/Rx) interface S-parameter and impedance tests defined in version 1.1 of the MIPI Alliance Specification for D-PHY. The MOI, together with a test package such as a state file, works with the ENA Series network analyzer’s enhanced time domain analysis option (E5071C-TDR).

Keysight Technologies Inc. announced the availability of its Method of Implementation (MOI) document for USB 2.0 connector and cable assembly compliance testing using the ENA Series network analyzer’s enhanced time domain analysis option (E5071C-TDR).  USB 2.0 remains popular for car navigation systems and other applications where a 480 Mbps or less transfer rate is just enough.

The “Solutions for RF Power Amplifier Test” and “Solutions for Implementing Envelope Tracking in Power Amplifiers” are the newest in the series of Keysight Power of Wireless application notes designed to provide a better understanding into the intricacies of the continuously evolving wireless industry and to help users accelerate development of their products.

Keysight Technologies Inc. introduced the industry’s highest bandwidth and lowest noise oscilloscope probe for making power integrity measurements to characterize DC power rails. The new Keysight N7020A power-rail probe specifications are tailored for a wide variety of DC power-rail measurements. Probe specifications include very low noise, a large ± 24-V offset range and 2-GHz bandwidth.

Keysight Technologies, Inc. today announced the U2040 X-Series wide dynamic range power sensors, consisting of four USB models for wireless and radar applications, and a dedicated LAN model for satellite testing. With the world’s widest dynamic range found in a power sensor and extremely high measurement speed, the U2040 X-Series makes fast and accurate.
