The DL950 ScopeCorder improves efficiency and effectiveness in design and evaluation of renewable and energy efficient technologies. The DL950 ScopeCorder is a combination of a multi-channel, mixed-signal oscilloscope and portable data acquisition recorder. It captures both high-speed transient events and long-term trends. Building on the capabilities of the well-established DL850E, the new DL950 ScopeCorder can […]
Clamp meter optimized for photovoltaic system tests
A solar clamp meter can measure up to 2,000 Vdc and 1,500 Vac (using PVHV leads) during installation, maintenance, monitoring and testing of photovoltaic systems and standard ac or dc electrical equipment. The DCM1500S can also measure ac and dc current up to 1,500 A and offers a true RMS reading on the ac range […]
General-purpose PXI matrix features 70-MHz bandwidth, high switching capacity
Available in 16×8, two-pole, or high-density 32×8, two-pole switching configurations, PXI matrix modules offer bandwidths ranging from 35 MHz to 70 MHz depending upon path selected and a VSWR less than 1.5:1 to 85 MHz. The modules are in two-slot PXI (model 40-588) or PXIe (model 42-588) formats and are constructed using telecommunication-grade electromechanical relays […]
Massively parallel board test system boosts throughput in a smaller footprint
The new i7090 massively parallel board test system is a new category of automated test equipment designed to perform tests in parallel, on multiple printed circuit board assemblies (PCBA), to achieve high-volume throughput which speeds time-to-market and reduces cost-of-test. Current systems on the market only support up to four cores in parallel. Customers must test […]

The Eclipse M52 is an M-PHY Gear 5 UFS 4.0 ready protocol analyzer and exerciser that supports JEDEC UFS 3.1, MIPI UniPro v1.8 and M-PHY v4.1 HS-G4 and now and can be upgraded to support JEDEC UFS 4.0, MIPI UniPro v2.0 and M-PHY v5.0 HS-G5 when available. Consumers of smartphones, digital cameras, and other consumer […]
Test system validates 400GE networks and devices
The new AresONE-S 400GE test system enables network equipment manufacturers and data center operators to validate complex, mixed 400 gigabit Ethernet (GE) and lower-speed networks and devices. Data center operators have widely deployed mature 100GE non-return-to-zero (NRZ)-based technologies. However, higher Ethernet speeds, such as 400GE, create new mixed signaling and forward error correction (FEC) implementations […]
Spectrum analysis software includes noise figure analysis mode
A new Noise Figure analysis mode is available for the Spike spectrum analyzer software. Noise Figure analysis is one of the most useful metrics for RF test engineers, characterizing the noise contributions of an electrical system, as well as the individual electrical components within the system. Spike is Signal Hound’s spectrum analyzer software, compatible with […]
Kit verifies isolation effectiveness of RF shielded enclosures
The JRE TVK Isolation Tester can help verify the proper shielding isolation of RF enclosure test set-ups. This test combination, consisting of the STA-1, a sensitive handheld spectrum analyzer, and the HPSS-1, a high power 2.45-GHz test signal source, can easily and quickly measure enclosure isolation down to less than -100 dB. The TVK Isolation […]
Source measurement units reliably gauge currents from nanoamps to amps in a single sweep
The R&S NGU series of high-precision SMUs feature innovative current feedback amplifier technology that provides both maximum sensitivity and accuracy to reliably measure currents from nanoamps to amps in a single sweep. To handle rapidly changing load conditions typical of battery-powered communications devices switching between sleep and transmit modes, the R&S NGU features an optimized control loop […]
Economical force tester handles basic static, multistage, cyclic testing chores
Accuracy, repeatability, and documentation of results are important factors when applications and raw materials undergo force testing. The ideal test machine used for carrying out the force testing should be simple to operate and test results should be easy to read and export for further analysis. The digital Chatillon CS2 Series of force testers meets […]
