Rohde & Schwarz launched with the R&S ESU the world's first commercial EMI test receiver capable of time domain scans. The EMI test receiver family R&S ESR does also support time domain scans and delivers even faster measurements.
Taking the R&S ESR EMI test receiver as an example, this paper examines...

Medical device designers have become increasingly interested in the Linux ® operating system (OS), largely because of its open source model. Linux lets the designer leverage a large pool of developers, a rich legacy of source code, and industry-standard POSIX APIs.
But Linux may not be the right choice for all...

One of the primary purposes of a gate driver is to enable power switches to turn on and off faster, improving rise and fall times. Faster switching enables higher efficiency and higher power density, reducing losses in the power stage associated with high slew rates. However, as slew rates increase, so do measurement and...

In a design of a modern switch-mode power supplies (SMPS), the designer has to ensure that the converter is operating in its specified values over all circumstances. For example, some of these tests to ensure proper performance are output voltage deviation test, load transient test, output voltage ripple, input voltage...

Vector Network Analysers (VNA) are gaining popularity in the Signal Integrity community as Time Domain Measurement and Analysis tools.
VNAs with 8 ports or more can provide significant decreases in test time by migrating from a 4-port measurement system to an 8-port measurement system. For tight tolerance DUTs...

Deembedding, often a necessary and complex task, is made easier with an integrated hardware and software solution. Whether you are debugging a high-speed interface such as DDR or PCIe, characterising a fast clock or analysing a complex RF signal, you want to see the real signal and not artifacts of the test setup such...
