Agilent Technologies and The MathWorks Make MATLAB(R) Software Available with Purchase of Agilent Signal, Spectrum Analyzers

SANTA CLARA, Calif. & NATICK, Mass.—(BUSINESS WIRE)—September 23, 2008— Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE: A) and The MathWorks Inc. today announced the availability of MATLAB with the purchase of Agilents EXA, MXA, or PSA signal analyzers. The combination of Agilent signal analyzers and MATLAB data analysis software enables engineers to confidently analyze, visualize, demodulate, and filter signals that would otherwise be very difficult or impossible to do. The agreement enables users to obtain high-quality instrumentation and data analysis software from a single source.

MATLAB is extremely important and is used pervasively by our customers, said Guy Sene, vice president and general manager of Agilents Signal Analysis Division. This agreement provides them with the convenience of purchasing a complete hardware and software solution from Agilent, allowing them more time to focus on the creation of real-world, high-quality designs.

Agilents signal analyzer series, the EXA and MXA, and the PSA high-performance series now have purchase options that allow customers to include task-optimized configurations of MathWorks products:

Agilent customers get the benefit of a coherent, integrated software platform that lets them use Agilent equipment in the complete product-development lifecycle, said Roy Lurie, vice president of engineering for MATLAB products at The MathWorks. This combination, in turn, enables them with integrated analysis, which accelerates time to insight and time to market.
