 Introduction
The application-focused EPS200RF is a complete solution for best-in-class RF measurements up to 67 GHz. Based on the PM8 system platform, the SMART RF 200 mm package includes all the hardware, software and accessories you need to confidently probe RF devices with pads as small as 25 µm x 35 µm. Features & Benefits
- Application-ready - right out of the box
- Consistently deliver credible, accurate measurement results
- Effortlessly probe RF devices with pads as small as 25 μm x 35 μm
- Minimize training efforts by operating with ease and confidence
- Gain free time with simplified system re-configuration and minimized errors
Smaller pads not only utilize less device real estate, they also allow sacrificial test structures to be placed in scribe lines, meaning process control monitoring and device characterization can be performed without using valuable space for sellable circuits. Probing pads with large dimensions is relatively simple with conventional probe technologies.

However, when trying to probe pad sizes of 50 um x 50 um or less, side skate becomes a challenge as it causes wider probe marks and can change the probe pitch with overtravel. Read how InfinityQuad solves this and other challenges of probing small pads.

GNSS R&D TESTING ISSUES
|
Introduction
are immense. In a few years time there will be over 160 GNSS signals available from satellites comprising 4 main constellations -GPS,
GLONASS, Galileo and Compass. To ensure design success you need to ensure that: 
- You have the right benchmark test system in place, with Multi-GNSS capability
- You have a flexible GNSS test platform that can deliver best-in-class performance
- You can justify your spend on GNSS test equipment and GNSS testing
- Your GNSS R&D objectives are not compromised through inadequate testing
So how can you ensure that your test platform gives you results that you can trust, with all of the GNSS test features that you need today and ahead into the Multi-GNSS future? read more

In-place monitoring systems detect security threats
| Introduction
In-Place Monitoring (IPM) systems provide effective detection and geolocation of potential security threats in or around sensitive buildings, installations and public venues.

The RFeye is the ideal receiver for use in IPM systems. By detecting the location and signal characteristics of suspicious transmitters, or detecting unusual patterns of radio transmissions, RFeye can help identify potential breaches of security or provide intelligence to mitigate specific risks. learn more
