Tektronix Launches New Calibration Software

Tektronix Inc., a provider of has introduced a new solution to simplify the process of characterizing and de-embedding the effects of cables, fixtures and other interconnects for more accurate measurement results. The solution is the SignalCorrect software plus the TSC70902 calibration source and is compatible with Tektronix' DPO/MSO7000 real-time oscilloscope.

To simplify the interconnect characterization process, SignalCorrect provides step-by-step guidance from initial set-up through to measuring insertion loss and creating and applying filters. According to the company, the software is designed for intuitive operation with a friendly GUI and detailed information that guides the user through the process using both text and graphical content.

“As speeds increase across the electronics and communications industries, the need to remove  effects of interconnects from high-speed measurements is becoming a much more common requirement than in the past,” said Brian Reich, general manager of Performance Oscilloscopes, Tektronix. “With SignalCorrect software and our new calibration source we’re making previously complex tasks like characterizing and de-embedding the interconnects a routine part of performing high-speed measurement and analysis.”
