What are spectrum analyzers used for?

common problems 5030

spectrum analyzerThe amplitude of an input signal can be measured versus frequency over the entire frequency range to determine the power of the signal. Spectrum analyzers are capable of performing tests such as noise figure and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) to characterize the performance of a device and its contribution to overall system performance. For more information, please refer toApplication GuideFundamentals of Spectrum Analysis.

  • What is a resistor?

    236

    What is resistance in electricity? This article will cover the basics of resistance, how to calculate resistance, and resistors. Many people have heard the word "resistance" when they were students, but may still not understand it. However, because they don't understand it, they are hesitant to ask people about it now. Simply put, resistance is a force that flows in the opposite direction of the current. Resistance...

  • What is alternating current (AC)?

    278

    Alternating current (AC) is a type of electric current whose polarity reverses periodically and whose amplitude varies continuously over time. AC power is often used in businesses and homes because it is cheaper and more efficient to generate and transmit than direct current (DC) power. During transmission, a transformer can reduce power loss by increasing or decreasing the voltage of the AC line. Alternating current (AC) is a form of household electricity -...

  • What is the difference between an oscilloscope and a spectrum analyzer/signal analyzer?

    95

    We usually use time as a frame of reference, focusing on when certain specific events will occur. This includes electrical events. Oscilloscopes allow you to view the instantaneous value of a particular electrical event (or the voltage value of some other event converted by an appropriate transducer) over time. In other words, we can use an oscilloscope to view the waveform of a signal in the time domain. Fourier theory...

  • What is IQ modulation?

    241

    In-phase quadrature modulation (IQ modulation) is the main modulation scheme used in communication applications. It is popular because of its efficient use of bandwidth, meeting the increasingly urgent need for bandwidth in a world where data volumes are growing exponentially. It is important to test with simulated IQ signals because designers are always faced with a lack of bandwidth in an interference-ridden spectrum. Example...
