Digital phosphor oscilloscopes simplify complex-signal analysis
Article Abstract:
Tektronix Inc. is introducing a new range of instruments called digital phoshpor oscilloscopes (DPOs), to satisfy measurement requirements of the dynamic and complex waveforms that are being produced in higher-density integrated circuits and faster microprocessors. Engineered to display, store and digitally evaluate complex signals in real time, DPOs utilize three dimensions of signal data to perform the tasks, as compared to digital storage oscilloscopes (DSOs) which only use two dimensions, and analog real-time oscilloscopes (ARTs) which can not store or provide analysis for the three dimensions. At the heart of these DPOs is a proprietary waveform-imaging processor called DPX, which is configured for high-speed image acquisition and memory management.

Extract MESFET models for wireless applications
Article Abstract:
An innovative technique develops precise small-signal equivalent-circuit models for the derivation of metal-semiconductor-field-effect-transistor (MESFET) models, which are used for RF and microwave simulation applications. The technique is able to derive MESFET model parameters despite minimal device data, such as single-bias-point S-parameters. The new procedure has been utilized in LASIMO, a commercial program that can extract a transistor's parasitic elements; a range of commonly accepted large-signal models for MESFETs and high-electron-mobility transistors; a bias-dependent intrinsic FET model; as well as user-defined large-signal models.

Software synthesizes transmission lines
Article Abstract:
The Advanced Transmission Line Analysis and Synthesis System (ATLASS) software from Integrated Microwave Technologies, Inc., can assess and formulate transmission-line designs rapidly and accurately for maximum high-frequency performance. Encompassing more than 50 various transmision-line and waveguide structures, ATLASS is easy to operate with the help of user-friendly menu elements. The computer-aided engineering tool, which also incorporates several useful data-conversion and reference features, is now available in Version 1.05 for Windows 95 and Windows NT.
