Take a look at and measurement firm Ametek has acquired amplifier design and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) testing firm Amplifier Analysis.
Based on a submitting with the Securities and Alternate Fee, Ametek paid $105 million in money for Amplifier Analysis, which is predicated in Pennsylvania and has annual gross sales of about $60 million. The corporate’s product portfolio consists of RF and microwave instrumentation amplifiers, hybrid energy amplifier modules, antenna and management software program used to offer high-end EMC options. Amplifier Analysis serves the protection, communications, automotive and medical markets.
“Amplifier Analysis is an impressive acquisition which properly enhances our current capabilities within the electromagnetic compatibility testing market,” stated David A. Zapico, chairman and CEO of Ametek. “Their experience and functionality in amplifier design will enormously improve our capability to offer a broader suite of options for enticing markets together with electrical automobile testing and protection communications.”
Amplifier Analysis will grow to be a part of Amtek’s Digital Devices Group.

–Anritsu partnered with AnaPico AG to allow cross-instrument recording and analyzing of radio indicators. Anritsu stated that it’s seeing “rising demand from prospects want for devices to seize RF indicators of curiosity over the air after which play them again from vector sign mills,”or VSGs, and it now has an answer for this within the type of its Anritsu IQ Sign Grasp MX280005A PC utility. Anritsu collaborated with AnaPico to supply an answer that depends on Anritsu’s Subject Grasp Professional MS2090A spectrum analyzer to seize indicators, at which the the IQ knowledge file might be loaded into AnaPico’s VSG for playback of seize and evaluation of RF indicators as much as 40 GHz.
“The seamless technique of IQ knowledge seize and playback is right for in depth testing of the response of receivers to a variety of indicators,” Anritsu stated in a launch, including that the answer additionally has built-in algorithms to assist discover and isolate indicators of curiosity with a view to “validate the efficiency of receivers to actual world threats,” noting that this functionality is especially necessary for safety and protection companies.

–Spirent Communications put collectively a joint networking system-on-chip (SoC) verification resolution along with Cadence Design Techniques. The collaboration brings Spirent’s digital Ethernet visitors emulation and testing capabilities into the pre-silicon verification course of that’s supported by Cadence’s Palladium Z2 Enterprise Emulation and Protium X2 Enterprise Prototyping techniques. Spirent stated that it could actually emulate any port velocity from 1G to 800G on the utility stage; the answer, which was collectively developed, is geared toward supporting ever-higher knowledge bandwidths wanted to confirm SoC designs for knowledge facilities and different high-performance purposes.
“We’re happy to work with a number one computational software program vendor to bridge the hole between pre- and post-silicon validation of next-generation networking merchandise with this extremely versatile and cost-effective resolution,” stated Aniket Khosla, VP of product administration for cloud and IP at Spirent. “Our collaboration with Cadence supplies entry to the newest Chip Design Verification resolution to assist prospects determine important issues early within the design lifecycle and speed up time to marketplace for the newest improvements driving the trade. It is going to assist cut back improvement time, simplify testing of the advanced Ethernet chipset design course of, and be sure that new merchandise carry out as anticipated.”
