TEST & MEASUREMENT APPLICATION NOTES AND WHITE PAPERS

• Measurement Of The Phase Between Several Signals

  Measurement of magnitude can be done with spectrum analyzers, power meters etc. For a phase measurement, a VNA is the easiest, fastest and most accurate instrument. 

• Combining On-Wafer VNA And Spectrum Analyzer Measurements

  This app note describes how S-parameters and spectrum analysis can be monitored simultaneously from 70 kHz to 110 GHz using the VectorStar ME7838A, the Spectrum Master MS2760A, and the Anritsu MN25110A W1 coaxial precision directional coupler.

• Effortless Testing Of Direction Finding Devices – Amplitude Based

  Together with multiple coupled R&S SMW200A vector signal generators, the R&S Pulse Sequencer allows performance characterization of all types of direction finding equipment such as devices that use amplitude comparison, interferometric or time difference of arrival (TDOA) techniques. 

• S-Parameters For High-frequency Circuit Simulations

  Understanding the meaning of S-parameters, how they are measured, and their limitations can lead to more meaningful RF- and microwave-frequency simulations.

• Power Consumption Analysis With Specialty DC Power Supplies

  Optimizing power consumption is critical for IoT devices running on small, non-rechargeable batteries. Learn how accurate characterization and smart design can extend device lifespans.
