According to a new report by Global Industry Analysts the non-destructive test (NDT) equipment market will reach $1.2 billion by 2015. Stringent industry product specifications and tight quality control requirements set by the manufacturers are two of the biggest factors driving this demand.
The global market for surface inspection equipment is growing steadily with European […]

Here are two good links from the Electronics Testing & Measurement Bulletin, an e-mail newsletter I receive:

Environmental Stress Screening 101: Free Tutorial
Spectrum Analyzers 101: A Glossary of Testing Terms

This webcast will evaluate the non-banner specifications of waveform digitizers. The discussion will include looking beyond the specification sheet’s usual banner listings into such topics as bandwidth, sampling rate, bit resolution and memory depth. A host of performance criteria will be taken into account to determine the actual measurement fidelity the digitizer system can be […]

New signal generators from Rohde & Schwarz support both HD Radio technology and AM/FM/RDS. HD Radio is iBiquity Digital Corporation’s brand of in-band on-channel (IBOC) technology.
The range of broadcast signal generators from Rohde & Schwarz includes the R&S SFE100 test transmitter, the R&S SFE broadcast tester and the R&S SFU broadcast test system. The […]

Agilent Technologies has introduced two modules for its N6700 Modular Power System family that measure microamp current for a device under test (DUT). For R&D engineers designing integrated circuits and electronic devices that run on batteries, these power supplies measure current consumption and its effect on battery run time. When used in Automatic Test Equipment […]

Agilent Technologies has just introduced the next-generation InfiniiVision 7000 Series of oscilloscopes.
The series offers bandwidths up to 1 GHz and a deep memory waveform update rate of up to 100,000 waveforms per second. According to Agilent, this eliminates two common errors that can cause engineers to miss critical information: unresponsive controls with deep memory […]
