signal analyzerCapable of measuring the amplitude and phase of an input signal at a single frequency. The Signal Analyzer combines the large dynamic range of a swept-tuned spectrum analyzer with the power of a Vector Signal Analyzer (VSA) to perform in-channel measurements, such as Error Vector Magnitude (EVM) measurements, which require both magnitude and phase information.

Vector network analyzers measure a wide variety of devices and networks and offer a wide range of measurements for a variety of usage scenarios, such as spectrum analysis, pulse measurements, power amplifier (PA) characterization, and active device testing. The following guide describes how to set up a network analyzer for measurements, calibrate the measurement system, and interpret the measurement results: The uses of VANs are so wide-ranging that each measurement...

A network analyzer consists of a signal source and a receiver. The receiver will detect changes in the output signal of the device (or network) and then compare it to the source signal fed into the device. To evaluate the effect of the device on current and voltage, the VNA measures the resulting amplitude and phase response. This results in transmission and reflection measurements, impedance and s-parameters, which can be used by the test engineer to...

What is the difference between a DC power supply and an AC power supply?
February 14, 2025 420
Alternating current is suitable for transmission and distribution of electricity over long distances through the grid system. Direct current is a one-way flow of charge and is more reliable than alternating current, but is not suitable for long-distance transmission. Most electronic devices use DC because their voltage is constant, such as devices powered by batteries. Some devices also use rectifiers to convert AC to DC. Power supplies usually have an internal...

How to read the measurement results of a digital multimeter?
February 14, 2025 402
Most handheld or benchtop digital multimeters display measurements digitally. The number of digits displayed on the screen usually represents the measurement resolution of the digital multimeter. Resolution is the smallest detail that a digital multimeter can quantitatively determine when making a measurement. Therefore, the more digits a digital multimeter displays, the higher its resolution. Handheld digital multimeters are typically capable of displaying three-and-a-half and four...
