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.

• Perform High Impedance Measurements With Spectrum Analyzers

  Modern RF circuit designs can use oscilloscope probes to directly probe circuit components, eliminating the need for traditional RF connectors and ensuring accurate measurements with high-impedance probes and spectrum analyzers.

• Top 5 Strategies For 5G Component Characterization And Test

  Component manufacturers need to deploy effective strategies for characterization and test regardless of the component types. This white paper presents five strategies for 5G component characterization and testing.

• 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.

• RF Amplifier Output Voltage, Current, Power, And Impedance Relationship

  How much output voltage, current, and power can you expect from your amplifier? In rare cases, this can be answered by applying Ohm’s law, assuming that the net power or power delivered to the load is the rated power output of the amplifier. In most cases, practical issues such as VSWR and forward power concerns must be considered before applying Ohm’s law. This application note addresses this issue and discusses an approach to be used that applies actual test data when calculating output parameters.
