TEST & MEASUREMENT APPLICATION NOTES AND WHITE PAPERS

• 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.

• How To Test USB Power Delivery Over Type-C

  USB Type-C compliance test standards are more complex due to higher data transmission speeds and more power. Successful testing requires accurate and compliant test instruments, software, and fixtures.

• Top 10 Considerations For Automotive EMC Chamber Design And Testing

  This resource will help you avoid the most common mistakes and outlines the important things to consider to successfully develop or refine an automotive EMC chamber and test design.

• 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.

• 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.
