IC Validation Engineer at a manufacturing company with 51-200 employees

The Pulse Pattern Generator and Error Detector are co-located, making it easier to use. However, I would like a better GUI.

Take a look and do some demos. It will help you decide whether to go with this equipment or not. It took us about a week to become acclimated to the solution. We are not using this product to support connected devices, e.g., IoT development, nor are we planning to going forward.

B-scan is its most valuable feature. However, we are looking for an Intel platform with the newest chipset.

Try it if it is within your budget. It is a good product. The learning curve is very quick. It takes about one or two days. While we have plans to use this product to support connect devices, we are not currently doing so. We are currently measuring signals from 3.0 and 4.0, and looking for 5.0.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"It gives you the capability to increase the Tap levels and voltage strength more than what you have in your signal."

"The Pulse Pattern Generator (PPG) and Error Detector are co-located, which makes it easier to use because I can just probe it directly on the PCB."

"It supports the PAM-4 encoding scheme, and we use that to do our PAM-4 receiver validation, and it's also quick and easy to use."

"The features are pretty much the same as an expensive competitor, but the price is better."

"I have recommended this product before because I think we received the best product for the money that we paid."

"It supports the PAM-4 encoding scheme. We use that to do our PAM-4 receiver validation."

"The information that I can get with the VNA is useful for me to select materials, like copper, and all the information that it can provide is really useful, due to the processing of the data."

"The most valuable feature is its frequency range."

More Anritsu Oscilloscopes pros

"It is a very capable instrument; it really does the job."

"The user interface is excellent. The GUI is so self-explanatory and there are the same knobs everywhere; the design is a standard design line."

"The Tektronix user interface is like an Apple iPhone, but for oscilloscopes."

"When I was looking for a scope for that lab, that five subdivisions per division was important."

"Being able to monitor data from a CAN bus while the vehicle is running will cut down a lot of the feedback for the design mode."

"It is easy to handle, so everyone likes to use it."

"It's a good product."

"Valuable features include that it's multi-channel... and has bandwidth filtering. The user interface is good."

Cons

"Pricing is always expensive. It would be better if they lowered the price."

"I would like to see them improve the software. The new version can be improved; it's not quite stable and restarts a lot."

"I would like the frequency range to be extended because of the speed. Electronics are moving forward to higher speeds, so it's better to have higher frequencies."

"Sometimes, the forms keep changing because of new product technology. If they could reduce the amount of change in the form, this would be good."

"The product's antennas and radar applications need improvement."

"I would like to see them improve the software. The new version can be improved. It's not quite stable. It restarts a lot."

"Sometimes, the forms keep changing because of new product technology. If they could reduce the amount of change in the form, this would be good."

"The user interface is somewhat difficult when it comes to updates, so this is something that they need to improve. I would like a better GUI with navigation."

More Anritsu Oscilloscopes cons

"There was a learning curve, which was a little tricky at times."

"I would like to see more integration into machine learning because that's what we try to apply it to."

"There is room for improvement when it comes to the screen size."

"They need to add more memory to this machine because at this time the machine can support random simulation to the power of 15 but realistically, in requests from our customers, we need it to the power of 31."

"We are looking for an Intel platform with the newest chipset."

"The ruggedness could be improved."

"If you are dealing with time domain measurement, I strongly recommend using a vendor other than this company."

"I would like to see more integration into machine learning because that's what we try to apply it to."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is expensive, but I guess that is why it works."

"It's very expensive equipment and cannot be upgraded after five years. If you buy equipment today, in five years, it won't be upgradeable. You have to upgrade it within the first five years that you buy it."

"The pricing is costly."

"I think everyone gets a demo before purchasing."

"Price-wise, it is much cheaper than its competitors."

"Pricing is always expensive. It would be better if they lowered the price."

"The first version of the product is always expensive, then once there is competition, it will be cheaper."

"Pricing could be lower. I would want to buy it for an extremely, low price, but Tektronix is a high-end product."

"It could always be cheaper."

"We demoed the product before purchasing it."

"The pricing is okay. It was within our budget."

"In the 100 gigabit Ethernet and 400 gigabit Ethernet category, everything is in the multi-hundred thousand dollar range, so it was fair pricing because everything is expensive."

"It's available on the low-end scopes for free, but on the higher-end scopes, it is expensive. Therefore, it's a bit more difficult to make stuff work."

"I would like to see a lower price."

"Isolated probes are good to have, as most of the scopes don't have it. It drives up the cost when you have to buy isolated probes."
