In virtually every industry, from pharmaceuticals to food processing and aerospace, temperature is a critical variable. The success of a process, the quality of a product, and even operational safety often depend on precise temperature control. But how do you ensure the thermometers, sensors, and controllers you rely on are telling the truth? The answer is temperature calibration.

For engineers and technical managers, maintaining the accuracy and traceability of test and measurement equipment is essential to ensuring product quality and regulatory compliance. One often-overlooked advantage of choosing Tektronix Factory Calibration over third-party providers is the inclusion of instrument adjustments at no additional cost—a benefit that becomes especially critical when …
Calibration is the cornerstone of precision and reliability in high-performance electronic test equipment. Unlike mechanical or dimensional calibrations which are based on physical disciplines, calibrating advanced electronic systems requires extensive electrical circuitry understanding. In high-speed systems, errors—like a ±2.00 dB deviation—can lead to critical issues such as signal noise …
In advanced electrical engineering, measurement accuracy is foundational to system design, validation, and compliance. Whether you're characterizing high-speed digital interfaces, validating power integrity, or performing EMI diagnostics, the calibration of measurement instruments safeguards that your data is not only accurate—but also traceable, repeatable, and defensible.
At Tektronix, we view …
With a capture rate of over four million waveforms per second, you’ll see blinks of glitches, catch the slightest jitter, and find the rarest faults. Even when these anomalies are hidden so well between clock edges and protocol pulses, a high capture rate will keep you from flying blind. In this blog, we’ll explore how the new FastAcq feature on the 2 Series MSO can enhance your debugging …
In a time when supply chains remain unpredictable, engineering teams are under constant pressure to deliver more quickly, and new technologies—from AI-optimized semiconductors to quantum systems—are redefining what’s measurable, one thing remains constant: test and measurement must keep up.
At Tektronix, we believe keeping up isn’t enough. We need to move faster than the pace of innovation, so our …
Your programs depend on precision. Maintenance windows, calibration cycles, and instrument availability all keep your schedules on track. As Andy Maloney recently shared, Tektronix is evolving how we deliver service for our customers.
In the Americas, that evolution is centered on flexibility—especially for customers who manage instruments from multiple OEMs. We’re focused on making access easier …
As industries accelerate their shift toward decarbonization and energy efficiency, engineers are under growing pressure to reduce waste during testing. Power regeneration in electronic loads offers a smarter, greener way to recover energy instead of dissipating it as heat. This hub blog explains what regenerative loads are, why they matter, and how they connect to broader power testing strategies …
In the world of advanced electronics and precision measurement, calibrating your digital multimeter (DMM) isn’t just a best practice—it’s a necessity. Whether you're working in R&D, manufacturing, or field service, ensuring your DMM is properly calibrated can mean the difference between reliable data and costly errors.
Why Calibrate a Multimeter?
Multimeters are the workhorses of electrical …
Pressure is one of the most common physical measurements in the world. From ensuring the safety of industrial plants to optimizing the performance of aerospace systems, accurate pressure measurement is indispensable. But the instruments that measure pressure can drift over time, leading to inefficiency, quality issues, and serious safety risks. This is where pressure calibration becomes essential …
