Tektronix plans DesignInsight seminars
-- Test & Measurement World, 3/16/2006 9:31:00 AM
This April, Tektronix will be taking its DesignInsight 06 seminar to seven cities in the US and Canada. The seminar, which covers electronic and RF testing technologies and methodologies, will provide tips for using digital oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, arbitrary function generators, real-time spectrum analyzers, and measurement-and-analysis software for design and debug. National Instruments has joined the seminar series as a Premier Partner and will provide training on instrument-control software that connects Tektronix instruments to PCs.
The seminar consists of two tracks. Track One discusses test methodologies for low-speed serial buses, strategies for FPGA debug, compliance testing for high-speed serial standards, and the characterization of complex digital RF signals. Track Two covers embedded system design and will offer hands-on labs to give attendees insight into the common circuit operation challenges, such as setup-and-hold violations, false logic states, harmonic issues, bus contention, and integrating simulation results into design verification. The labs will also focus on viewing the small details within a signal that can affect the signal's appearance and the accuracy of a measurement.
The DesignInsight 06 seminar series will be held in Toronto (April 6), Boston (April 11), Washington, DC (April 13), Orlando (April 18), Dallas (April 20), Irvine, CA (April 25), and Santa Clara, CA (April 27).
