Optimization of the delivery program
Our product range has been streamlined and made more transparent. Generators with low demand have been removed from the public portfolio to make it easier to navigate – we continue to offer customized solutions.
By grouping similar devices into series and improving standard categorization, customers can find the right product more quickly and independently. We are of course still available for personal advice and support in product selection.

Expansion of the automotive portfolio:
ISO 7637-4
Our automotive portfolio has been expanded again—this time to include the ISO 7637-4 standard, which describes electrical transients along shielded high-voltage power lines. Numerous new devices, amplifiers, and coupling elements have been developed to comply with the standard. Visit our category or standard search for further details on the corresponding products.
Expansion into the automotive sector
Our product portfolio has been expanded to include applications in the automotive sector. As part of this, we now use the fast amplifiers of the AWG series to complement our generator pulses with a variety of pulse shapes. This enables even more precise and flexible simulation of automotive-specific test signals.
