TEST & MEASUREMENT APPLICATION NOTES AND WHITE PAPERS

• Battery Cycle Tool For The R&S NGU401/NGU201/NGM200/NGL200

  The battery cycle tool has several charts that display collected data and can be used to characterize battery samples and create battery models.

• Electronic Packaging: Using EMI Material-Based Solutions

  It can be difficult when individual components could pass EMI testing but, as the components are combined into subsystems or into the final product, the DUT fails. Incorporating EMI shielding materials as part of an initial design is the most cost-effective way to prevent these last-minute issues during testing.

• R&S®FSWP And The Validity Of Positive Phase Noise Values

  This white paper reviews the classical spectrum analyzer measurement of L(f) and its shortcomings. It also discusses how modern phase noise test sets measure phase noise and avoid the limitations imposed by direct spectrum measurements, especially with the use of the R&S®FSWP.

• Field Probe Correction Factors

  To better achieve accurate field level measurements, it is helpful to have an understanding of field probe calibrations, the factors generated, and what’s presented as data during testing. This application note presents how to utilize the factors presented for inclusion into test data, how to generate composite measurements, and why calibrations are performed at selected frequencies.

• Characterizing Parasitic Components In Power Converters

  With the rise of wide-bandgap semiconductors like GaN and SiC, characterizing parasitic components in power converters is crucial for maintaining efficiency and preventing performance issues.
