Agilent and Pickering to collaborate

Agilent Technologies and Pickering Interfaces has introduced a wired trigger bus (WTB) adaptor that allows Agilent 6000 and 8000 Series mixed signal oscilloscopes (MSOs) to show the logical state and analog representations of all eight LXI WTB channels on a single display. The LXI WTB adaptor provides a simple and elegant method of exchanging trigger signals between LXI devices that use the WTB. It replaces ad hoc trigger systems commonly seen in GPIB-based automated test systems where instruments can exchange proprietary triggers between devices using coaxial cables and other digital I/O connections.
