Advantest Corp. has selected the Rohde & Schwarz RTP high-performance oscilloscope for mass production evaluation of high-speed SoC testers.
The unit has a high-speed rise time of 33 per second and a powerful, highly stable jitter analysis function with the latest decomposition algorithm, which enables simpler and more accurate system measurements. These benefits convinced Advantest to decide on the R&S RTP.
Advantest selected the R&S RTP high-performance oscilloscope for its signal integrity and high acquisition rate. The R&S RTP features real-time processing with an in-house developed, high-performance, low-distortion A/D converter, an analog frontend and a large-scale logic ASIC for the backend. Despite its compact form factor, the R&S RTP enables extremely accurate measurements at unprecedented speeds.
Jacques Jourda, Managing Director of Rohde & Schwarz Japan, says: “We are honored to be providing our products to Advantest, the world’s top supplier of SoC testers,”
Noriaki Fukushima of the Advantest SoC Test Business Headquarters says: “The introduction of the R&S RTP and building of a new shipping inspection line helped strengthen our production line in response to increased demand. We were also able to enhance options for replacing ageing production equipment. In the future, we will expand our use of the R&S RTP164 to promote the robust operation of measuring instruments in production.”
