Demos

Join Courtney Shrier, Business Development Manager for Keysight's digital products, as she introduces a groundbreaking milestone in measurement technology—the InfiniiMax 4 probe family. This video unveils the exceptional probing solution that surpasses industry standards by reaching beyond 50 GHz bandwidth. Courtney is joined by Ashley Yang, an esteemed R&D engineer at Keysight, who provides a deep dive into the development journey of the InfiniiMax 4.


Discover the technological marvel of the InfiniiMax 4, built upon Keysight's proprietary indium phosphide IC process technology, ensuring exceptional performance at its core. The InfiniiMax 4 boasts an impressive >50 GHz bandwidth, making it the industry’s only probe that can debug high-speed digital signals above 30 GHz. This eliminates the need for custom test fixtures, allowing for seamless debugging and validation at unprecedented speeds.


Ashley reveals the meticulous redesign of the modular probing system, featuring a flexible, modular design. This flexible tip allows for quick changes to the test setup when debugging, enabling more specific probing of traces compared to custom setups. Don’t limit yourself—make every test point accessible with the InfiniiMax 4. Probe your signals wherever you want, from transmitter to receiver and everywhere in between, identifying and rectifying issues with your link faster and with precision.


Explore the specific challenges of next-generation testing as Ashley elaborates on the complexities faced in modern digital design for data center interfaces. Learn how the InfiniiMax 4 serves as a game-changer, providing a seamless solution for testing the link between transmitters and receivers with unmatched precision and ease. With up to 52 GHz bandwidth, the InfiniiMax 4 aligns perfectly with the demands of high-speed digital standards, boosting testing efficiency and eliminating the need for additional verification boards or fixtures.


Discover the three distinct models within the InfiniiMax 4 series, catering to diverse bandwidth needs. From the 42 GHz and 52 GHz models with traditional brick wall response to the groundbreaking 40 GHz model with a Bessel-Thomson filter for specialized applications, each model offers unparalleled precision in measurement. The InfiniiMax 4's Bessel-Thomson filter enables precise, real-time probing of IEEE 802.3ck signals (53 GBd PAM4) for the first time, expanding the boundaries of what was thought possible in measurement technology.


Experience how the InfiniiMax 4 revolutionizes debugging, leaving behind lengthy custom setups and fixtures. Courtney and Ashley emphasize the efficiency and precision of this comprehensive probing solution, enabling engineers to focus on pioneering innovations rather than struggling with system verification. The InfiniiMax 4 sets a new standard in probing tools, transforming complex tasks into manageable processes and enabling efficiency and precision in today's fast-paced technological landscape.
