We use it to decide the materials which are best for PCB designs

We are able to determine losses associated with different types of materials. Thus, we are able to decide the materials which are best for any given design. The electrical measurements that this equipment is capable of measuring are the standard parameters. Therefore, it is mandatory for each company to have a vector network analyzer (VNA).

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

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

"The most valuable feature is its frequency range."

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

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

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

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

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

"The user interface is simple and straightforward, so I can easily measure frequency, time, and other complex measurements."

"Its 4 port has true differential with quite a few de-embedding features. It goes up to 40 GHz with high performance."

"It can go up to a very high frequency, up to 120 gigahertz. And the user interface is really good. It's really easy to navigate."

"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."

"Its versatility and accuracy are the most valuable features."

"The Keysight Ecal feature has made it very easy for me to do calibrations."

"Before silicon came back, our customers' performance was affected. Using these tools, we are able to deliver performance to our customers."

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."

"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."

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

"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."

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

"Something I'd like to see is much better documentation and some good examples. That would be very helpful for a new user to get better at using the new test equipment."

"The technical support is okay, but sometimes they are on a different page than us. If it is something wrong with the scope, they are okay. However, if something technical goes wrong, like the calibration, it is hard to get the information that we need because it is hard to share everything and explain all the measurements in real-time."

"Some of the models have only two ports. It takes much longer to use a two-port. If they had a four-port, it would be much better."

"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."

"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."

"I would like more customized functions, so we can do the programming and definitions ourselves. There is an automation flow to capture this signal, and we would like to do this ourselves."

"The user interface has a load of features that come with it, which is why it is an eight out of ten."

"I would like them to build in more high-speed functions, such as FEC or PCIe, built into the array. PERT to be built-in for more specific product call. These would make our lives much easier."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I think everyone gets a demo before purchasing."

"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."

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

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

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

"The pricing is costly."

"It's expensive, but the quality matters."

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

"While I don't have transparency on the pricing, it works within my budget."

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

"The price is affordable for us, but for smaller companies, probably not."

"It's very expensive."

"Our solution is upgradable. However, upgrading depends on how much money the company is willing to spend, because each upgrade will take a million dollars."

"It would be good if it were a little bit cheaper, of course."
