The new Model SVA1015X Spectrum and Vector Network Analyzer has frequency ranges from 9 kHz to 1.5 GHz, (VNA frequency range is 10 MHz – 1.5 GHz) and starts at $1,395. This next generation test instrument provides exceptional measurement precision with a wide range of RF measurement functions for RF device testing, broadcast evaluation, site […]
Measuring phase noise and jitter
Generally, whether one speaks of phase noise or jitter depends upon whether they happen to be a radio frequency or digital systems engineer. Both phenomena are random fluctuations of a time-domain waveform in an oscillator or in a clock. Phase noise is best represented in the frequency domain. It is usually defined as the spectral […]
Exploring the Siglent SHS 1102 hand-held oscilloscope through use of reference and recorder functions
The word oscilloscope is mostly used to refer to a bench-type instrument, but scopes also exist as hand-held, battery-powered versions. The bench-type oscilloscope, model-for-model, usually has more features, higher specifications such as bandwidth and sampling rate, more controls, deeper menus and so on. The hand-held, battery-powered oscilloscope, in contrast, is smaller and more portable, well-sealed […]
VIDEO: Siglent SHS 1102 Hand-Held Oscilloscope Overview
The Siglent SHS 1102 hand-held oscilloscope is examined using internal square-wave signals that are provided for the purpose of compensating probes. Greetings and welcome to our 59th Test and Measurement Video. This time we’ll examine the amazing Siglent SHS hand-held oscilloscope. This 100 MHz instrument with a sampling rate of one gigasample per second has […]
Locating and Evaluating Harmonics Using the Siglent SSA 3032X Spectrum Analyzer
What is a harmonic? A harmonic of a repeating wave is a wave with a frequency that is a positive integer multiple of the original, known as the fundamental frequency. The original wave is also called the first harmonic, and the following harmonics are known as higher harmonics. With regard to a 60-Hz electrical system, […]
VIDEO: Signals from Siglent SDG 2122X Arbitrary Waveform Generator Displayed in Tektronix MDO3104 Oscilloscope
Two high-end test instruments are connected to display waveforms and Lissajous patterns. Hi and welcome to our 56th Test and Measurement video. Today we’ll do one of my favorite things in the world of electronics, and that is to connect two products by different manufacturers and see them work in concert. Both very high quality […]
Exploring frequencies with a Siglent SSA 3032X spectrum analyzer
A lab that aspires to do advanced electronic research or product development must have one or more oscilloscopes and spectrum analyzers. Despite their obvious similarities, the two are totally different instruments. The oscilloscope functions in both time and frequency domains, the latter by means of its math/FFT (Fast Fourier transform) capability. The spectrum analyzer, in […]
Product review -– Siglent SDG2000X series arbitrary waveform generator
Most high-spec contemporary oscilloscopes include as an option a built-in arbitrary function generator. Engineers use this feature on a daily basis. It goes well with the many other capabilities in today’s amazing digital storage oscilloscopes, and one would not want to be without it. However, a well-equipped bench will usually have a stand-alone arbitrary waveform […]
