Cover Story 
Smart scopes:Spot the secret within waveforms
Dan Strassberg, Senior Technical Editor
DSOs’ job keeps getting harder, but scope makers keep finding ways to satisfy ever-tougher demands. Wider bandwidth, quicker ADCs, and deeper memories are only part of the story. Giving designers insights and answers when they need them now requires more—and faster—intelligence.
 
Design Feature 
Control and signal processing:Can one processor do it all?
Robert Cravotta, Technical Editor
Integrating control/signal processing in one system is about more than technical performance. Tools, culture, legacy, and engineering experience also play big parts.
Design embedded displays for a lasting impression
Lyle Leavitt and Ladd J Brabec, Planar Systems Inc
Flat-panel displays not only provide the primary human interface for many embedded systems but also define their look and feel. Make sure your product’s display creates a positive first impression.
How to take evil out of eye diagrams
Greg LeCheminant, Agilent Technologies
Eye diagrams can provide 20/20 insights into communication-system behavior—but don’t let common pitfalls lead you down blind alleys.
