Related Media

Tektronix Inc. is a test, measurement, and monitoring company providing measurement solutions to the communications, computer, and semiconductor industries worldwide. With more than 55 years of experience, Tektronix enables its customers to design, build, deploy, and manage next-generation global communications networks and advanced technologies.

THE NEED
To meet performance goals while saving time in the design of complex, high-speed interconnects

THE SOLUTION
Q3D Extractor™, HFSS™, and other High Frequency products

“The proper design of high-speed test equipment presents some interesting and difficult challenges for the interconnect engineer,” said John Dunn, of Tektronix. “Ansoft’s High Frequency and Signal Integrity tools help us to meet the highest performance standards possible when designing probes, ball-grid array (BGA) packages, and chips.”

Andrew Byers, a Hardware Design Engineer at Tektronix, says, "A board, package, or IC that fails to perform as expected can create cost overruns and large delays in time-to-market. We use Q3D Extractor early in the design process to accurately model and optimally design critical components, which helps us avoid potentially costly design turns."
