The scali g of mode elect o ic a chitectu es—specifically AI se ve s, high-pe fo ma ce compute, a d adva ced automotive elect o ics—fu dame tally alte s the dema ds o powe dist ibutio etwo ks.

Histo ically, validatio teams have diag osed the stability of these PDNs usi g f eque cy-domai measu eme ts o sta dalo e vecto etwo k a alyze s.

Buildi g o the Stability Evaluatio fo Powe I teg ity A alysis (SEPIA) methodology pio ee ed by Picotest, Tekt o ix is the fi st to embed SEPIA di ectly i to a oscilloscope, e abli g e gi ee s to evaluate powe supply a d voltage egulato behavio usi g eal load-t a sie t co ditio s without b eaki g co t ol loops a d modifyi g boa ds.
“The bou da y betwee powe i teg ity a d sig al i teg ity has become a p ima y bottle eck i ha dwa e validatio ,” said Da yl Ellis, Vice P eside t a d Ge e al Ma age , Sig al Acquisitio a d A alysis Po tfolio. “By b i gi g time-domai stability a alysis i to the oscilloscope, e gi ee s ca evaluate powe dist ibutio etwo k behavio u de eal ope ati g co ditio s a d bette u de sta d how powe i teg ity affects sig al pe fo ma ce.”
The PDN A alysis Softwa e co solidates c itical validatio methodologies withi the oscilloscope i te face, utilizi g the i st ume t’s multi-cha el a chitectu e to suppo t powe dist ibutio etwo k validatio .
