LeCroy Enhances Product Value and Competitiveness Across Entire Portfolio with Comprehensive Product Launch

Fifteen New Products Include Software-Driven WaveShape Analysis Tools, Serial Data and Protocol Analysis Solutions, 1 GHz and 2 GHz WaveRunner Scopes

CHESTNUT RIDGE, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--LeCroy Corporation (NASDAQ: LCRY), a leading supplier of oscilloscopes and serial data test solutions, today is announcing a comprehensive launch of 15 products designed to enhance product value and competitiveness in every market segment the Company serves. The products include new WaveShape software solutions, new oscilloscope models aimed at the important market space between 1 and 2 GHz, and a wide range of additional tools for protocol analysis and serial data test applications.

Said LeCroy President and Chief Executive Officer Tom Reslewic, "This new array of scopes, protocol analyzers and software-oriented WaveShape analysis and serial data test solutions strengthens the value proposition and competitive position of our products across our entire product portfolio."

"A year-long R&D effort has culminated in a series of products that enhance LeCroy’s product capabilities in ‘WaveShape Analysis’," continued Reslewic. "Chief among these new products is WaveScan™, an advanced software-driven search and analysis tool. WaveScan makes LeCroy far more solutions-powerful across a broad spectrum of serial data and WaveShape analysis applications. WaveScan is being offered as an enhancement across LeCroy’s entire oscilloscope product line, improving the scope’s ability to efficiently scan large numbers of events, locate signal problems and speed the debug process."

"While the most exciting and far-reaching technologies we have developed are embodied in products such as WaveScan, we are also excited about the launch of two new high-end WaveRunner Xi oscilloscopes," said Reslewic. "These new products include 1 GHz and 2 GHz models in the Company’s family of WaveRunner Xi mid-range oscilloscopes. These new scopes add tremendous performance and value at the high end of the WaveRunner Xi line."

"We also have introduced three new oscilloscope models in the WaveMaster and WavePro space," said Reslewic. "In addition, we have enhanced the competitiveness of the WaveMaster and WavePro lines by increasing sample rates and memory across many models. Furthermore, we have re-priced the entire WaveMaster and WavePro product lines to make them more competitive."

"Our comprehensive product launch also includes a variety of protocol analysis and serial data test solutions," added Reslewic.

These new solutions include:

Two new serial trigger and decode options to improve the power and capability of WaveRunner Xi and WaveSurfer Xs scopes in the embedded test market. These new tools mark further progress for LeCroy in combining physical layer tools with protocol analysis capabilities.
A new compliance test software toolset for serial data applications, called QualiPHY™, which features superior measurement accuracy, delivers exceptional ease of use, and provides multi-format retrievable reports.
A complete series of performance upgrades for PCI express and UWB protocol analyzers.
