Cover Story

  • The scopes trial

    Does LeCroy owe its big win to Tektronix's 11th-hour pullout? You be the judge in EDN's hands-on, 6-GHz shoot-out.
  • FROM EDN EUROPE: Get smart

    Smart cards pass the global test

Design Features

  • Budget analysis ensures good radio-receiver-link performance

    By understanding your receiver-signal-processing chain, you can provide the necessary level of performance.
  • Single-ended or differential? That is the question

    New active-probe architectures make multigigahertz signal-integrity measurements easier and more accurate but only for those who understand how the probes work and the trade-offs among the topologies.
  • The X-modules

    10-Gbps fiber-optic ports are shrinking, but the hype meisters aren't. A trio of front-panel, hot-pluggable, transponder MSAs bring new opportunities for I/O designers who don't buy vague claims that try to take the place of documentation and performance measurements.
