Serial Port Splitter
With COM Port Splitter you can split one real port into several virtual ports, join real ports into one virtual, and redirect the serial traffic from real port to another real or virtual. You can also share one real serial port among several applications so that they will receive the same data from one serial port simultaneously. You can also join several ports under one name and let applications switch among the free ones. COM Port Splitter is very good at splitting any hardware COM port into multiple virtual COM ports, so that each of them behaves exactly like the original port and has the same name. All virtual ports receive any data that is received by the original port at the same time. For example, COM Port Splitter can let a single serial device interact with multiple applications at the same time. Another job COM Port Splitter can do for you is join some real COM ports into one virtual port, which is rather useful when you need some application to handle multiple serial devices simultaneously. All data received by one of the joined COM ports is instantly forwarded to the joining virtual port and to the application, and vice versa. It is also possible to redirect all serial traffic from a hardware COM port to another COM port (hardware or virtual) with COM Port Splitter, meaning that any data sent to the redirected port is immediately received on the port you redirected it to. You may need this in case you are using some software with very strict serial-port settings and instead of figuring out how to modify those settings you can just redirect the data traffic to it. Besides, COM Port Splitter is essential for creating complex bundles of real and virtual serial ports and interconnecting them as you wish, therefore enabling data exchange between those ports.

Silver Button Sockets
For BGA, QFN, or LGA applications, GTP contact technology provides >94 GHz signal speed and can additionally be used in high cycle life applications such as ATE. These sockets support pitches from 0.2 mm to 1.27 mm. Ironwood's GT sockets are ideal for prototyping and testing almost any BGA device application. These IC sockets provide excellent signal integrity yet remain cost effective. Innovative elastomer interconnect technology that delivers low signal loss (1dB at 94GHz) and supports BGA packages with pitches down to 0.2mm was utilized in these sockets. GT BGA sockets are mechanically mounted over a target system's BGA lands using mounting and alignment holes at proper locations (page 2 of the individual socket drawing shows recommended PCB layout information). These low-profile sockets are only 2.5 mm per side larger than actual IC packages (industry's smallest footprint).

Solid State Voltage Injector
J2110A
While it is possible to obtain high quality injection transformers with bandwidths as wide as 1Hz to 5MHz or more, in some cases this is still insufficient for some tests. For example a typical heater control loop might have a bandwidth of less than 1Hz while some linear regulators and opamp circuits can have bandwidths of up to 100MHz or in some cases even higher. For these applications, a solid state injector can provide the necessary bandwidth. A solid state injector can perform at DC, while the upper frequency limit is dictated by the components selected and the printed circuit board material and layout. It is possible to obtain a solid state injector with a working range of DC – 200MHz, though above 50MHz the interconnection between the injector and the circuit being tested can become quite critical. It is essential that ripple from the injector power supply does not dramatically degrade the dynamic range or the signal to noise ratio of the measurement. The resulting plots are often much cleaner when using a solid state injector than with a transformer injector.
