Agilent Technologies(安捷倫) 與 Adlink(凌華) PXIe 與 AXIe技術結盟


凌華與安捷倫攜手深耕模組化儀器市場上網時間: 20130322看好模組化儀器市場的發展前景,安捷倫科技()與凌華科技(Adlink Technology)宣佈共同合作拓展以 PXI /AXIe 為基礎的模組化量測儀器版圖;而這也是繼去年底安捷倫認購凌華私募股權後雙方強化技術結盟的第一步。 2004年以來,凌華與安捷倫的合作關係已超過8年了,看好凌華科技在量測、自動化與工業電腦方面的實力,安捷倫在去年12月入主凌華股權的7.39%,並期望在未來進一步深化雙方在技術方面的合作關係。作為這項策略結盟的第一步,安捷倫電子量測儀器事業群行銷處副總經理羅大鈞表示,結合安捷倫在量測儀器上的專業以及凌華在嵌入式與IPC的技術與經驗,雙方將共同拓展以 PXIe AXIe 為主的模組化儀器市場。因應量測市場需求的快速變化,模組化量測儀器較於單機儀器具備節省空間、開放式架構、配置彈性、易於升級與整合,以及節省總體建置成本與提高測試效率等優勢,正成為業界眾多廠商投入的重要領域。凌華科技量測與自動化產品事業處總監萬世豪強調,相較於整體測試與量測(T&M)市場約3-5%的穩定成長,模組化儀器市場在過去十年來每年大約都有兩位數左右的成長,特別是在量測、 RF 以及機箱與平台方面的成長更為快速。凌華在開發 PXI 產品方面已有十多年的經驗,從2001年推出首款 PXI 多功能資料擷取卡 PXI-2010 以來,目前已累積一百多款基於 PXI/PXIe 的控制器、機箱與模組儀器等產品;而在基於 Advanced TCA 標準的AXIe 方面,凌華並著眼於更高階的量測儀器與測試應用。相較於其它 IPC 廠商,身為 PXI 聯盟董事與最高級會員的凌華科技並致力於 PXI 技術與規格的推廣,積極參與軟體規格定義,為廠商的不同產品間建立互通性。羅大鈞指出,安捷倫在模組化市場佈局多年,到了2010年才正式加入 PXI / AXIe 聯盟,當時該公司有47 PXI / AXIe 產品,而今已快速累積到近80項產品。從2010-2012年的模組化市場CAGR也實現了155%的高速成長,特別是在較高階的研發、.11ac、高速數位、功率放大器設計以及航太與國防等應用。羅大鈞並強調表示,「除了示波器與手持 RF 測試儀器以外,模組化儀器也是安捷倫在2013年的發展重點。儘管技術不斷進展,但量測本質並未改變,主要都在將外界的類比訊號變成數位訊號,因此模組化儀器強調只需改變測試模組就能符合最新技術需求,更是未來重要的儀器開發趨勢。」(Susan Hong)
