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.

Helps us ensure our materials' performance and DKDF measurements

I would definitely recommend trying this product. It's a really reliable and high-performance machine. In terms of a learning curve on the equipment, I had some training on the VNA before we purchased it, so for me training was done within a week or so. It was not really hard. But for colleagues, it took them some time to learn it. Upgrades are always welcome. Apart from VNA, we need to purchase all the fixtures, other equipment to connect to VNA. They are very expensive tools, and that's part of upgrading what we are doing in the lab. The solution, performance-wise is a ten out of ten. Price-wise, it's a six out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We can extract signal loss, skew, DKDF... and the tool is very flexible."

"The most valuable feature is its frequency range."

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

"The user interface is easy, simple, and practical."

"The jitter function included into the system has helped me in terms of improving the capabilities of our product."

"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's accurate, fast, has high bandwidth, and the PLTS is pretty convenient."

"It does everything that I need it to with the PLTS software and the network analyzer software."

"The product's functionality makes things easier for my partner, who is doing the PCIe design. He is able measure the product's usage and bit error rate."

"It's a one-stop solution. It does everything we need. The combined functionality is the biggest benefit."

"Because they're such a big industry standard name, their products are standardized across many customers, which is why people own these products."

"The user interface is nice. It describes the output well, so it's easy to use."

"The customer support is very good. If you need an application to do any measurement, you can easily get a hold of people to help you with it. This is a whole ecosystem."

"The user interface is very simple. Everyone can use it."

Cons

"Right now, it's a minimal tool. They could make it more dynamic by adding dynamic features, which could help us with doing effective analysis."

"The user interface is a bit complicated because they have so many tabs. If they could simplify it, this would be helpful and appreciated."

"I would like a better GUI with navigation. This should make it easier to compare to competitors, like Textronix or Keysight."

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

"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."

"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."

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

"We tried to connect multiple computers with a KVM switch but we could not do that using Keysight VNA. Keysight VNA comes with the PC inside it. We have other equipment as well, and we tried to combine it so that we had one monitor to control everything. With Keysight we could not do it. That's something of an inconvenience."

"There is room for improvement with some of the features of the scope. I would like them to make it a bit more simplistic... For example, if I want to look at what the total jitter is, they should make it simpler to find that, with different tabs."

"I would like be able to measure multi-lane simultaneously. Right now, the high-performance jitter solution measures one signal. I would like to capture many at the same time."

"If the simulation runs for a long time, it will suddenly crash. If they can debug that, the product would be better."

"We are using this product to support connected devices for IoT development, but we need more automation."

"There is a learning curve depends on the client that I am working with. E.g., if I'm working with a client, and they have a test and measurement equipment company, when I go to another company, the new company may not be using the same model."

"I would like to see the possibility of interacting with the software, new features for software post-processing. For example, once you're done measuring, it would be nice to be able to generate some data starting from the measurement data."

"While the user interface is good with respect to instrumentation, but with respect to documentation, I do not like it. Its documentation is slightly bad. It was not organized properly. The way it's organized is very difficult to understand, so it takes lot of time to search for one thing in particular."

Pricing and Cost Advice

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

"I think everyone gets a demo before purchasing."

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

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

"The pricing is costly."

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

"The major factor influencing the decision-makers is the price."

"Keysight is on the high side. If they could make the price lower without sacrificing the quality that would be great."

"The cost is always a struggle. We always wish that we could do more for less."

"If we rented the product, it would be more affordable than buying new."

"It's very expensive."

"The pricing is on the high side."

"The pricing is always high."

"Pricing always is very expensive. There's no free lunch."
