Agilent Technologies' FieldFox Analyzers Can Now Be Remotely Controlled via Apple iOS Devices
Agilent Technologies today announced that its FieldFox handheld analyzers can now be remotely controlled via an iOS device such as an iPad or iPhone. Also new are a spectrum analysis time-gating option and support for Agilent's USB peak-power sensors.
Signal Analyser Upgrade Lifts Analysis Bandwidth to 160MHz
Agilent Technologies has enhanced its midrange N9020A MXA X-Series signal analyser. New options for 160MHz analysis bandwidth and real-time spectrum analyser (RTSA) capability address the challenges of measuring interference in the next generation of heterogeneous wireless networks. The options can be included in new MXAs or added to existing units.
Mid-Range Vector Network Analysers Cover 100KHz to 40GHz
Rhode & Schwarz has launched the mid-range R&S ZNB20 and R&S ZNB40 vector network analysers for frequency ranges from 100 kHz to 20 GHz and from 1 MHz to 40GHz. The analysers are equipped with two test ports and offer measurement characteristics that are on a similar level as high-end instruments.
Semiconductor Device Analyser Enhancements Speed Pulse Measurement
Agilent Technologies has unveiled source/monitor unit (SMU) and software enhancements to its B1500A semiconductor device analyser. The B1514A 50µs pulse medium-current SMU gives a faster pulse at 30V/1A range plus oscilloscope-like viewing. The B1511B medium-power SMU delivers 0.1fA low-current measurement capability at a lower price with an optional atto-sense switch unit.
Rohde & Schwarz adds models up to 20 GHz and 40 GHz to its R&S ZNB network analyzer family
More dynamic range and measurement speed in the microwave range: The new R&S ZNB20 and R&S ZNB40 network analyzers now offer these features in the midrange price segment as well. Like all models in the R&S ZNB family, their compact hardware platform requires less space than similar instruments.
Measurement Option Upgrades Spectrum Analyser to Real-Time Operation
A new measurement option from Rohde & Schwarz for the R&S FSW high-end signal and spectrum analyser supports real-time signal analysis for frequencies up to 50 GHz with an analysis bandwidth of 160 MHz. It enables the detection of interfering signals to the exact level and without gaps, using a single, fast measuring instrument.
GOEPEL electronic supports Energy Micro’s Wonder Gecko MCU with new VarioTAP Emulation Test & Debug libraries
VarioTAP technology increases test coverage for the latest ARM Cortex-M4 with FPU EFM32 Wonder Gecko microcontrollers. Energy Micro announces the immediate availability of emulation support for its latest EFM32 Wonder Gecko MCU with new VarioTAP model libraries from GOEPEL electronic.
8-Channel Temperature Measurement Device In An M2 Enclosure
IPETRONIK upgrades the second generation of its M-Series CAN modules by adding M-THERMO2, an 8-channel temperature measurement device connectable to K-Type Thermocouples (NiCr/NiAl). The redesigned M2-Series enclosure uses reduced dimensions of 106 mm x 30 mm x 50 mm (W x H x D) and is designed for use in the engine compartment supporting IP67 protection class, as well as the extended temperature range of -40 °C to +125 °C. A supply voltage in ...
Chokes test appliance switches to international standards
REO has designed and manufactured chokes for testing switches in domestic applications to the international BS EN 61058-2-1 and BS EN 60669-2-1 standards. BS EN 61058-2-1 applies to switches for appliances with particular requirements for cord switches, while BS EN 60669-2-1 covers switches for household and similar fixed electrical installations with particular requirements of electronic switches.
IPETRONIK Announce FleyRay-Extender For M-LOG And IPElog Data Loggers
IPETRONIK’s division IPEmeasure extends its M-LOG and IPElog data logger series introducing the newly developed galvanic isolated 2-channel FlexRay-Extender. FlexRay is a serial fault-tolerant field bus system used in many highlevel electronic chassis and driver assistance systems. This bus system is characterized by a significantly higher bandwidth of 10 MBit/s, as compared to the CAN bus, and a deterministic and time-controlled transfer chara...
