What Changed. Where Systems Reach Their Limits. And How
Engineers Are Validating the Next Generation of Systems.

Engineering teams are facing a fundamental shift. As data rates climb, frequency ranges expand, and AI systems scale, traditional validation approaches are being pushed to their limits, and many teams are already running into these challenges.

This four-part series explores what changed, where validation breaks down, and how engineers are adapting. You’ll see how teams validate 800G interconnects, multi-terabit optical links, and large-scale AI clusters across the full lifecycle, from pre-silicon design to lab measurement, network emulation, and manufacturing test.

Each session focuses on practical changes in tools, workflows, and measurement strategies that help identify issues earlier, reduce costly rework, and ensure systems perform reliably at scale.

Join the series to understand what’s changing, where systems reach their limits, and how to build a validation strategy that keeps pace with next-generation technologies.

Data rates have doubled, but validation methods have not kept pace. As PCIe, DDR, and multi-terabit optical interconnects evolve, engineers are encountering signal integrity challenges much earlier in the design process.


Join Niels Fache, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Design Engineering Software at Keysight, to explore where validation becomes more challenging as speeds increase, and how engineering teams are adapting. You’ll learn how simulation, architecture modeling, and high-fidelity measurement help validate designs before silicon exists and reduce downstream risk.

Thursday, June 11, 2026 · 10:00 a.m.

As systems move into higher frequencies and wider bandwidths, small measurement errors can lead to costly design decisions. Engineers working in wireless, radar, satellite, and optical domains must now validate signals that push existing tools to their limits.


Join Jun Chie, Vice President of Product Management at Keysight, to explore where measurement fidelity begins to break down, and how engineers are adapting. You’ll see how next-generation instrumentation helps improve signal accuracy, reduce uncertainty, and increase confidence in design decisions.

Thursday, June 18, 2026 · 10:00 a.m.

AI data center networks now operate at a scale where device-level validation no longer reflects real performance. Engineers must understand how systems behave under realistic traffic conditions, not just in isolated tests.


Join Ram Periakaruppan, vice president and general manager of network applications and security at Keysight, to learn how large-scale traffic emulation reveals congestion, latency issues, and performance limits. You’ll see how to validate AI infrastructure under real workloads and ensure it performs reliably at scale.

Thursday, June 25, 2026 · 10:00 a.m.

As semiconductor complexity increases and board designs become denser, manufacturing teams face tighter tolerances, reduced test access, and rising pressure to maintain yield and throughput. Validating RF performance and high-speed digital signal integrity at production scale adds a new layer of complexity that traditional approaches struggle to address.


Join Jason Kary, Senior Vice President and President of Keysight’s Electronic Industrial Solutions Group, to explore how manufacturing validation is evolving. You’ll learn how wafer-level and in-circuit test strategies improve coverage, detect defects earlier, and enable consistent, high-volume production at scale without compromising quality.
