Software lets data loggers/scopes stream data to cloud storage
The PicoLog Cloud data logging software enables any Pico data logger or real-time oscilloscope to save data to a local disk or stream the capture directly to a secure online Cloud store. Uers can set up and control captures on a source PC and then remotely view them on any number of client devices running […]
Signal creation/analysis tool speeds development process for RF components
The new R&S VSESIM-VSS signal creation and analysis tool speeds the development process for RF components. It is particularly useful for the wireless, automotive, and aerospace and defense industries as well as for manufacturers of active components and systems. New wireless and satellite technologies offer ever wider frequency ranges and involve increasingly demanding requirements. Realistic […]
Don’t touch that! Things they don’t teach you in circuits lab
The domain of most electronics engineers these days is confined to voltage levels ranging from microvolts on up to a few hundred volts. But when electronic equipment fails or there’s a problem with facility wiring, these same engineers may, in a pinch, be called upon to do basic troubleshooting of power levels far beyond their […]
1U-high chassis includes dual ac input and monitoring
A new option is available for the 1U high OpenVPX, CompactPCI, and VME64x enclosures for power and monitoring. The 1U chassis supports various configurations of 3U/6U OpenVPX, or 6U CompactPCI or VME64x backplanes. The enclosure provides dual, non-redundant ac inputs with 12-V power which can be converted to 5 and 3.3 V as well. A […]

It is an all-in-one unit featuring a comprehensive set of built-in test instruments, complete with a built-in Windows 10 PC and special software, […]
FPGA-based instruments: Inside the Moku benchtop test gear
The roots of the venerable Moku:Lab, Moku:Go and Moku:Pro test gear from Liquid Instruments can be traced back to a sophisticated interferometer set to orbit the earth. As part of his PhD work, Liquid Instruments CEO Daniel Shaddock documented the design of the control system for the LIGO mirror, which had to be stabilized at […]
Server-grade PXIe controller designed for hybrid PXI Express-based testing systems
A server-grade PXIe controller, the Intel Xeon E-2276ME-based PXIe-3988, combines state-of-the-art Intel Core processors and up to 64 GB of DDR4 2400-MHz memory. The PXIe-3988 employs multiple computing engines on a single processor and can run four independent tasks simultaneously. Specifically designed for PXI Express-based testing systems, the PXIe-3988 provides a rugged and stable platform […]
Current probe kit facilitates safe 480-V panel connected load studies
The CCPK-6 Cabinet Current Probe Kit enables routine panel capacity studies to be performed in 480-V panels – without the need to open or power down the panel. The kit includes a four-phase, 6-in-diameter MicroFlex current probe assembly rated at 4,000 A, a thru-panel cabinet adapter/connector, and an exterior jumper cable to connect the METSyS […]
