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

"The most valuable feature is its frequency range."

"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."

"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."

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

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

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

"Tektronix is robust and reliable. It's a hammer-resistant machine, a fact which is most important on our manufacturing floor."

"The most valuable feature is the automation component in setting up some of these measurements."

"We have multiple systems for manufacturing tests, and it's critical for our support. The support increases our productivity."

"The most valuable features are everything they do. We primarily use the O-scopes and they help us figure out what's going wrong with our scope out signals."

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

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

"The Tektronix user interface is like an Apple iPhone, but for oscilloscopes. It is simple to use."

"It provides you the best way to view information without opening multiple applications, like a single solution."

Cons

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

"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."

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

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

"If they could make the user interface even more intuitive that would help. If they could make it easier to read, to know where the buttons are, that's all I need."

"They need to add more memory to this machine."

"It needs one button and every time you push it, you get whatever you need."

"I would like to see some WiFi capabilities. I would like to upgrade equipment, and if I was in the U.S., I could do that with WiFi capabilities."

"The power of the computer inside is weak. Sometimes I send a lot of data and I'll feel the lag... I would like to see them improve the processing power."

"I use microservices, but you cannot really probe it, since the technology is not really there."

"The ruggedness could be improved."

"There was a learning curve, which was a little tricky at times. Getting used to the GUI took time because we had to learn the different features."

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."

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

"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."

"I would like to see a lower price."

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

"It is a great price for a great product."

"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."

"They have academic pricing which is helpful."

"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."

"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."

"They're all pretty expensive. If everything costs that much, I suppose the pricing is fair."
