In the process of debugging and validating both digital and RF designs, the oscilloscope Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) function and a variety of other math functions can prove valuable to designers ...

Ok, you want to get an oscilloscope. Where do you start? This TechXchange includes content that will be useful for the operation of a scope in your test environment. This includes considerations like ...

With the ever-expanding adoption of wireless in embedded systems of all types, there’s no question that having spectrum analyzer capability in an oscilloscope is a time-savings convenience for ...

This article originally appeared in TV Technology. RF simulation software can provide a graphic display of RF fields; however, measuring them usually involves large anechoic chambers and structures on ...

For use with the DPO7000 and DPO/DSA70000 digital oscilloscopes, SignalVu vector signal analysis software promises to easily characterize and validate wideband and microwave spectral events. Of note, ...

The modern oscilloscope is no longer just a time-domain measurement tool, as test equipment vendors integrate logic, protocol, and spectrum analysis functions. (Image courtesy of Thinkstock). As ...

How to use DC-coupling for RF sampling ADCs. How to improve system linearity. Higher data rates in wireless communication systems and the use of narrower pulses in radars to resolve close targets ...

All periodic signals can be described in terms of amplitude and phase. We all learned that in basic circuit theory. You surely recall having to calculate signal’s phase change when it passed through a ...

Making ripple measurements has traditionally been using an oscilloscope. For a number of technical reasons, an oscilloscope, in general, is not necessarily the best choice for measuring ripple. These ...

RF simulation software can provide a graphic display of RF fields; however, measuring them usually involves large anechoic chambers and structures on the order of the wavelength of the RF fields to be ...
