November 22, 2004 All UDS-2000 Oscilloscopes can be used now with the USB 2.0 interface.
Any of the UDS-2000 PC-Oscilloscopes can be connected now to the USB port on any modern laptop or desktop PC. The USB 2.0 interface ensure a quick screen update rate, even when collecting large amount of data.
September 27, 2004 A first communication analyzer introduced in the UDS-2000 PC-Sampling Oscilloscope Series.
The UDS-2128 PC-Communication Analyzer is designed for high-performance communications applications. Two possible configurations provide one optical and one electrical channel, or O/E converter and two electrical channels. Each of the electrical channels has 20-GHz bandwidth while the optical channel has 8-GHz unfiltered optical bandwidth. Integrated optical reference receiver may include up to three Bessel-Thomson filters starting from 155 Mbps up to 3.125 Gbps. Option provides continuous clock recovery trigger from 50 Mbps up to 2.7 Gbps.
June 14, 2004 New 30 GHz model announced to the UDS-2000 PC-Sampling Oscilloscope Series.
The UDS-2030 is a dual-channel 30 GHz PC-Sampling Oscilloscope specifically designed for wide-bandwidth measurement in digital communications and device characterization applications. It provides an acquisition rise time of 11.7 ps, and maximum 3 mV RMS of displayed noise. The front-panel connector is K-type 2.92 mm female. The UDS-2030 can be equipped all heads possible with all another models of the UDS-2000 Series.
February 16, 2004 The UDX-P01 Prescaled Trigger Head widens communication measurement possibilities up to 12 Gbps. Now possible with N-type and SMA-type Input Connectors.
In addition to its full-function DC-coupled 1 GHz trigger the UDS-2000 Series PC-oscilloscopes offer two modified AC-coupled 12 GHz prescaled trigger heads UDX-P01. The heads are available with N-type or SMA-type of optional input connector. It provides direct triggering on high-speed data without cumbersome manual adjustment, and bit rates of 9.6 Gbps and beyond. A picture shows a test of 12-Gb/s eye diagram.
April 15, 2003 The UDS-2000 Series PC-Sampling Oscilloscopes now offer single electrical connection measurements—no external trigger is required.
With the addition of the UDX-R01/R02 Clock Recovery Heads, reliable parametric testing becomes easy even when you do not have access to a clock signal trigger. The UDX-R01 covers 622 Mbps OC12/STM4 bit ratewhile the UDX-R02 covers 2.488 Gbps OC48/STM16 bit rate.
March 25, 2003
The UDS-2020 was successfully demonstrated on ELCOM-2003 international exhibition. Demo includes measuring system working with 2.5 Gbps SONET telecommunication equipment.
December 9, 2002 The UDX-P01 Prescaled Trigger Head widens communication measurement possibilities up to 10 Gbps
In addition to its full-function DC-coupled 1 GHz trigger also a 10 GHz countdown trigger, the UDS-2000 Series PC-oscilloscopes offer new AC-coupled 10 GHz prescaled trigger head UDX-P01. It provides direct triggering on high-speed data without cumbersome manual adjustment, and bit rates of 9.6 Gbps and beyond.
May 12, 2002 New 12 GHz addition announced to the UDS-2000 PC-Sampling Oscilloscope Series
The UDS-2012 is a dual-channel 12 GHz PC-Sampling Oscilloscope specifically designed for low-noise measurement in digital communications and device characterization applications. It provides an acquisition rise time of 29.2 ps, and maximum 1 mV RMS of displayed noise. When the input signal is on level of tens of millivolts, as is characteristic of telecommunication signals, it is the best choice to make accurate measurements of noise, timing jitter, also statistics.
April 5, 2002 The ER2-02 ground penetration radar covers the interestin usefor road and bridge analysis
Most of the roads and bridge infrastructures was built some 20 to 40 years ago, and is now starting to deteriorate. Safety is becoming an issue and maintenance and remediation cost are skyrocketing. Knowing if a problem exist, and where, means intelligently planned remediation can occur. The ER2-02 ground penetration radar mounted on the light trolley is used for road and pavement surveys.
January 11, 2002 Eltesta added Margin possibilities into Mask Test softwarefor the UDS-2000 PC-Sampling Oscilloscope Series
When a test device passes a mask test without any violations, it is often useful to determine the margin of compliance. Mask margins are used for this purpose. First a mask measurement is made, then the mask is linearly increased in size by a particular percentage. For instance, if you want to verify that the test device can comply to a standard mask with a 15% margin, the margin value is set to 15% (see Figure). If a test device fails to comply to a standard mask you may set a negative margin, and determine where the device starts to fail.
