TEST & MEASUREMENT APPLICATION NOTES AND WHITE PAPERS

Characterization Of An Amplifier With The Combination Of Network And Spectrum Analysis
The general characterization of complex DUTs such as amplifiers requires the measurement of several parameters. Thanks to its versatility, the R&S^®ZNL is an economic solution that can characterize a variety of DUTs both via network analysis and spectrum analysis.
Load Transient Response – Enhancing Loop Stability Testing
Ensuring stability in power supply design requires validating switching converter stability through frequency loop and load transient responses, aided by modern oscilloscopes for visualizing PWM signals and identifying converter effects.
De-Embedding Test Fixtures For High-Speed Digital Applications
Test fixtures are commonly used in high-speed digital measurement to connect devices to measurement equipment. Characterization and analysis in time and frequency domains help remove the influence of these fixtures.
Understanding Component EMC Testing for ICs
If you're producing integrated circuit (IC) products for electromagnetic environments, you must test and pass all the regulatory electromagnetic interference (EMI) and safety requirements. Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) testing is performed to ensure these components can be used in the intended environment without failing, degrading, or causing other equipment to fail.
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.
