Tektronix LabThe Tektronix lab at PSU contains 30 fully-equipped test stations that include logic analyzers, 4-channel oscilloscopes, DVMs, programmable function gener-ators, spectrum analyzers, programmable power supplies, and Pentium 4 PCs. This lab allows students to learn analog and digital lab skills using the latest test equipment from one of the world’s top instrument companies. This lab is supported by Tektronix.

Video Image Processing Lab (VIP) With over $400,000 in equipment and cash donations from Tektronix, the VIP Lab provides invaluable research opportunities to students and faculty. The equipment includes a Motion Picture Expert Group (MPEG) portable analyzer, MPEG transport stream monitors, MPEG test systems, picture quality analysis systems, and a real-time spectrum analyzer.

VLSI Lab The VLSI lab contains 24 Sun workstations running the Solaris operating system. These systems have access to the "industry-strength" IC design tools from Mentor Graphics, Cadence, Synopsys, and many other companies. These tools allow students to learn VLSI design skills using the same tools they will later use on the job in industry.
