PALO ALTO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 10, 2004--

           New Set-Top Box Solution Meets Next-Generation Test
         Requirements, Increases Throughput, Lowers Cost of Test

Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE:A) today announced a 14-bit, 100-MHz 
digitizer for the Agilent 93000 SOC Series that offers the industry's 
highest performance for testing DOCSIS 2.0 and high-definition 
television (HDTV). The new set-top box solution meets next-generation 
test requirements, increases throughput and lowers cost of test.

As consumers demand more interactive, two-way communication and 
entertainment services such as video conferencing, cable telephony 
and peer-to-peer gaming, the cable television industry is pressed to 
increase bandwidth and data rates. The DOCSIS 2.0 standard increases 
upstream data rates to 30.7 Mb/s, three times faster than before, 
enabling symmetric upstream and downstream bandwidth. HDTV is also 
increasing in popularity because it provides a sharper picture than 
analog TV, offering up to four times more pixels. Both trends, DOCSIS 
2.0 and HDTV, require higher-performance digital-to-analog converters 
(DACs) to meet the higher data rate requirements. Higher performance 
impacts system-on-a-chip (SOC) and system-in-a-package (SIP) devices 
for set-top box, cable modem and digital television (DTV) 
applications.
