In recent columns, we’ve given a quick review of some basic instrumentation common to most engineering work benches. Here are a few more instruments found in many engineering labs. Signal generator Signal Generator is a generic term describing various instruments, all sharing a single rationale, which is that a device under test (DUT) requires a […]

USB graphing picoammeter measures bipolar picoamps to milliamps
The RBD 9103 USB Graphing Picoammeter is a compact, versatile, general-purpose picoammeter designed to accurately measure dc current from nanoamps to milliamps via its isolated BNC input. This rugged, portable, and affordable picocurrent sensor is available with high-speed and high-voltage options, optional bias, and 5-kVdc float isolation. The 9103 USB Picoammeter measures bi-polar dc current […]
Automated testing for automotive ethernet gear
The new Automotive Ethernet Tester (AET) is a highly-automated test system for OPEN ALLIANCE TC8 switching and AVB/TSN tests at the component level. The Automotive Ethernet Tester consists of a 19-in. test rack with control and analysis software. A PC control unit regulates the test system. Depending on the implementation, the test platform can contain […]
Electromagnetic field analyzer measures in time and frequency domains
The Microrad NHT 3DL Electromagnetic Field Analyzer is designed to measure electromagnetic fields in both time and frequency domains and in compliance with all the main international standards and regulations. A wide selection of interchangeable electromagnetic field probes allows this handheld analyzer to measure complex electric and magnetic fields from dc to 1 MHz in […]
Handheld LCR meter tests, identifies, measures PCB-mounted SM/leaded devices while on the board
The ST-5S Smart Tweezers handles on-board inductance, capacitance, and resistance measurements and PCB testing. The ST-5S tweezers are a valuable solution for quickly testing and identifying surface mount devices, as well as for troubleshooting complex electronic PCBs. Its mechanical and electronic design combines a pair of precise gold-plated tweezers and a digital LCR meter in […]
Source measurement unit software simulates classic curve tracer functions
Keithley I-V Tracer software brings many of the features loved in classic curve tracers to Keithley SourceMeter Source Measure Units (SMU). Because an SMU can source voltage or current while measuring voltage and current, it has similar hardware qualities to a curve tracer. The new software leverages the touchscreen interface of 2400 Series Graphical SMUs […]
Validation for 5G comes to integrated LTE, WCDMA, GSM conformance test system family
The Global Certification Forum GCF and PTCRB certification organization have accepted first test-case validations in various FR1 and LTE band combinations using the new 5G RF conformance test system R&S “TS8980FTA-3A” from Rohde & Schwarz. The solution is the latest version of a successful family of RF conformance test systems and the only one in […]
SMU modules handle tests involving low current, high capacitance
Two new source measure unit (SMU) modules for the Keithley 4200A-SCS Parameter Analyzer can perform low-current measurements even in the presence of high load capacitance due to long cables and complex test setups. Among the notable test applications facing this challenge are LCD display manufacturing and nano FET device testing on a chuck. The new […]
RF instrumentation adds 5G protocol test functions
The Radio Communication Test Station MT8000A has been upgraded with 5G Protocol Test functions. The upgrade uses NR (New Radio) Fading software that, when implemented with built-in baseband fading tests, allows the MT8000A to support 3GPP TS 38.521-4 B.1/B.2 V15.0.0-compliant 5G NR channel (TDL) model tests. With the software, the MT8000A can conduct fading tests […]
