Generational Technology Test Software Subscription
New Approach to Compliance Test Software Ownership
Keysight’s new Compliance Test Software Suites provide a new way of ownership and management of Compliance Test Software for organizations using a subscription-based approach. Each suite will enable a generational coverage across the technology.
Coverage across technology generations and variants through Suite Licenses
In the current Compliance Test Software products, each software only provides coverage to a single generation or variant of the technology it supports. With this new approach, each subscribed suite offers the support of technology across multiple generations and variants. Moreover, it allows the continued coverage as the technology generation progresses.
Depending on the technology a suite license supports, the coverage will include either a technology across multiple generations or across multiple variants. For example, a PCI Express Validation Suite will cover PCI Express Gen 4, Gen 5, and beyond. While a MIPI Validation Suite will cover M-PHY, D-PHY and C-PHY. See xxx for the technologies that are covered by the Subscription-based Suite Licenses.
Software Continuity and Technology Generation Scalability
When a user is subscribed under the Suite License model, any software-based support, fixes, patches, and enhancements are made available.
Under the Suite License subscription, users are eligible for upgrades as the technology progresses from one generation to the next.
Example:
1.USB High Speed Full TX Test Suite – Supports TX USB 3.2, TX USB 4.0 and beyond…(including USB 2.0, USB 3.2, USB 4.0 Protocol Decode).
2. DDR Validation Test Suite – Supports TX DDR3, TX DDR4, TX DDR5 and beyond…

• Securing software investments with license subscriptions that enable test solutions that scale together with technology and specification updates.
• Flexible software investments made possible with yearly subscription options without requiring to pay additional costs for support.
