Abstract :
Noteworthy developments during 1991 are summarized. The rise of RISC put new demands on logic analyzers. Instruments relied less on PCs and more on multiple microprocessors for intelligence. Testability issues continued to grow in importance, with a strong focus on boundary scan methods. In the standards area, work continued on intrinsic, or quantum, standards, with ion cooling and laser trapping coming to the fore as promising techniques
