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 ...
In August, this column took up some aspects of the measurement of DTV transmitter power output. You might wonder why I used the phrase "DTV transmitter power output" instead of "effective radiated ...
For some applications such as extremely low-noise amplifiers or precision automated test equipment, it’s still possible to find a linear power supply at work converting AC utility power into some form ...
This application note discusses on using a passive probe which is commonly used in an oscilloscope, only in this case, it will be used for a spectrum analyzer. A portion of the preferences and ...
