Versatile tester for IEEE-1394 bus
The new FireWorks 1394 VK9000 from Yokogawa Martron is designed to provide engineers with a powerful 'out of the box' solution for testing systems based on the IEEE-1394 bus.
Bluetooth analysis via the USB
At the Embedded Systems Show Yokogawa Martron is introducing a new Bluetooth analyser to complement its range of test and measurement tools for communications and bus protocol analysis.
The long memory (32Mword in the DL1640L and 8Mword in the DL1640) enables long-duration, multichannel observations to be made without sacrificing high-speed sampling, while the real-time digital filter extracts signals buried in high-speed noise.
The new oscilloscopes retain the high-speed all-points display and smart search functions of other instruments in the SignalExplorer series, but with a 20% reduction in volume, weight and surface area, and one-third the power consumption of earlier models.
The instruments feature four-channel operation with 200Msample/s sampling and a 200MHz analogue bandwidth.
The compact size (220 x 266 x 268mm) means that the units occupy less than an A4 size 'footprint' on a test bench or desktop, while the light weight of only 3.9kg makes the oscilloscopes easily portable.
The DL1640 Series uses a 6.4in wide-angle TFT colour liquid-crystal display screen, and offers a choice of a PC card drive, Zip drive or floppy drive for internal storage.
A wide range of interfaces includes optional USB and Ethernet connectivity.
A web search function allows easy file transfer, waveform monitoring, and parameter trend graph plotting on standard browser software such as Microsoft Internet Explorer, while the PC card interface supports large-capacity microdrive and hard disk cards.
The price of the DL1640 is GBP 4495 with the DL1640L costing GBP 5500 (prices excluding VAT).
