F. Joseph Frese, IV has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 10782348
    Abstract: Disclosed is a test and measurement instrument including a plurality of ports. The ports are configured to source a test signal into a device under test (DUT), and receive a signal response from the DUT. The test and measurement instrument also includes a measurement unit configured to measure the signal response. The test and measurement instrument further includes a processor configured to compare the signal response to a data structure. The processor also determines a classification of, and/or connections to, at least one DUT component coupled to at least one of the ports based on results of the comparison.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20160091994
    Abstract: A method including displaying an orthogonal grid on a touchscreen display. The touchscreen display is in communication with a test and measurement instrument. The orthogonal grid has an axis that is associated with a controlled output parameter of the test and measurement instrument. The method also includes detecting a touch input at the touchscreen display. The touch input includes a continuous slide gesture made by a user substantially along the axis of the orthogonal grid. The slide gesture begins at a first location on the axis and ends at a second location on the axis. Also, the method includes adjusting the controlled output parameter of the test and measurement instrument from an initial value to an adjusted value. The initial value corresponds to the first location of the slide gesture and the adjusted value corresponds to the second location of the slide gesture. Systems are also disclosed.
