TEST & MEASUREMENT APPLICATION NOTES AND WHITE PAPERS

• EMI Debugging Using Fast FFT With MXO Oscilloscopes

  Explore the MXO oscilloscope's EMI debugging capabilities, including gated FFT, superior RF performance, and advanced analysis features.

• How To Perform A Radiated Emissions Measurement

  Explore the intricacies of setting up radiated emissions testing with this guide, covering everything from antenna placement and polarization to accurate frequency selection and signal measurement.

• Noise Figure: What Is It And Why Does It Matter?

  Noise figure is a key parameter that quantifies receiver performance by measuring how low a power a signal receiver can detect. This white paper covers the basic principles of noise figure, how to make sense of its specifications, how it is measured, and why this parameter is important in high-performance applications.

• Linearity Of The JFET And MOSFET When In Saturation Over The Entire Cycle

  Performing RF amplification in a way that is simultaneously linear and efficient has been a challenge in power amplifier (PA) design. Single transistor PAs can either be operated in a linear, but inefficient, current source mode of operation or as efficient, but nonlinear, switches. These techniques use two FETs, but this paper demonstrates that linear amplification can be achieved at high power with an efficiency greater than 60%, using a single FET.

• Power Supply Control Loop Response Measurements (Bode Plot)

  The R&S^® RTx-K36 frequency response analysis (Bode plot) option provides a low-cost alternative to low frequency network analyzers or dedicated standalone frequency analyzers.
