Combo multi-channel, mixed-signal scope/DAQ captures high-speed transients, long-term trends
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 […]
Understanding fiber optic measurements
Optical fiber is a highly efficient transmission medium for light. Slightly thicker than a human hair, optical fiber is manufactured by drawing out transparent plastic or glass into long strands. It is flexible, capable of bending around obstacles and being fished through small wall cavities. Light travels along straight paths unless influenced by an outside […]
