RF/Microwave Design and Test

	Choose the Right RF or Microwave Power Sensor/Meter
		RF power measurements are part of every RF or microwave design project, from mobile phones to military radar. Today's RF power meters address widely varying modulation and multiplexing schemes with features once found only in high-end analyzers, but you still need to choose the best tool for your job. Our new app note sums up the issues and solutions you’ll want to consider.

	Visual Trigger Captures Elusive Events
		Sometimes signal behavior is so erratic that it's almost impossible to quantify a scope trigger threshold or even a glitch condition. That's when the 70000 Series scopes’ Visual Trigger comes in handy. It's as simple as drawing a small on-screen polygon to detect any event that enters its boundaries. Our brief video shows you how to trap complex events with a simple "box."

	Automated Tools for Ethernet SFP Compliance and Debug
	Automation is the key to productivity in compliance work. Our new SFP-TX solution simplifies setup and enables one-click measurements for SFF-8431 SFP+ compliance testing and debug. It automatically configures masks, limits, and parameters when used with the Tektronix DPOJET application.

Video Design and Test

	CaptureVu™ Aids Network Troubleshooting, Diagnostics
		Tektronix CaptureVu technology allows you to easily capture MPEG events for deep analysis and identify the root cause of problems large and small. Especially useful are the manual pre-triggers that not only capture errors but also acquire the information leading up to them. Read our application note to see how CaptureVu pinpoints the underlying causes of your network issues.

	VQS1000 Video and Audio QoE Tips
	Do you need to detect video impairments and see artifacts from over-compression? Tektronix VQS1000 Video Quality Software tools can help you detect these problems and keep your audience happy. Watch our short video clip on the VQS1000 software for an overview on making critical QoE measurements, both live and on a captured stream.
