Tektronix acquires Digianswer Bluetooth protocol analyser

News

24 January 2001 News

Tektronix has announced an agreement to acquire the Bluetooth SIG (Special Interest Group) approved protocol analyser product from Digianswer, a subsidiary of Motorola based in Nibe, Denmark. In addition, the companies will form a five-year partnership to further advance Bluetooth technology and applications.

Bluetooth wireless technology will enable users to connect a wide range of computing and telecommunications devices easily and quickly, without the need for cables. To date, more than 2000 telecommunications, computing and consumer products companies have joined as members of the Bluetooth SIG to drive development of the technology and bring it to market.

The acquired Bluetooth protocol analyser joins a suite of Tektronix products aimed at enabling the rapid adoption of Bluetooth technology in the electronics industry. In addition to further development of the protocol analyser, the company plans to leverage this advanced technology across its entire product portfolio to provide more complete design and debug solutions for Bluetooth developers.

"Bluetooth could revolutionise the way we apply technology in our everyday life. However, adoption of Bluetooth technology has been slowed by the inability to accurately and rapidly test products before they come to market," said Rick Wills, President and CEO, Tektronix. "Tektronix' expertise in test and measurement, and Digianswer's industry-leading Bluetooth technology, will provide the industry with the test equipment needed to accelerate the development of Bluetooth products and services."
