The brief

The Compound Semiconductor Applications Catapult aims to build capability in testing and characterising high speed optical components, modules and systems.

The procurement of a high-speed sampling oscilloscope has been identified as a key piece of equipment to develop capability in testing and characterising high speed optical devices, such as high-speed optical communication systems, optical sensors using pulsed beams and optical components used for spectroscopy.

The equipment is required to provide an electrical interface for visualising and sampling high-speed signals either fed into or measured from an electrical/optical device.

The addition of a high-speed optical detector allows the direct sampling of optical signals.

This test and measurement equipment will be used for R&D during the CSA Catapult's collaborative and internal projects whilst also providing potential commercial opportunities in compliance and pre-qualification testing against a range of standards for high speed communications.

The equipment will be located in the Photonics Laboratory of the CSA Catapult as the main objective for the acquisition is to use the equipment to characterise high speed optical communications modules.

However, the use of the equipment is relevant to all three technical sections (Photonics, Power Electronics and RF).

The equipment will be required to be delivered to the laboratory in Newport, Wales, by the end of May 2020.
