TEST & MEASUREMENT APPLICATION NOTES AND WHITE PAPERS

Solving Tomorrow's Obsolescence Challenges Today
This white paper discusses best practices in operations implementation, hardware acquisition, and software design to reduce the sustainment burden of handling obsolescence in test systems long before the equipment goes end of life.
Crowdsourcing Versus Mobile Network Testing
The need for an objective evaluation of mobile network quality and performance drives two fundamentally different approaches, crowdsourcing, and mobile network testing.
Harmonic Measurement For IEC 61000-4-3 And Other Radiated Immunity Standards
Amplifiers exhibiting significant harmonic distortion in immunity test systems can exhibit broadband characteristics that result in measurement uncertainty and unacceptable errors. This app note addresses acceptable harmonic measurement standards and other radiated immunity standards.
How To Analyze Passive Low Frequency Components With A Rohde & Schwarz Oscilloscope
This white paper presents a technique for easily and quickly analyzing low frequency response on an oscilloscope with the R&S®RTx-K36 frequency response analysis (Bode plot) option, which uses the oscilloscope’s built-in waveform generator to create stimulus signals ranging from 10 Hz to 25 MHz.
Selecting Your Next Oscilloscope: Why Digital Triggering Matters
Many people tend to overlook the importance of triggering while selecting an oscilloscope, but it's actually a crucial factor to consider. Digital triggering can offer some significant advantages.
