The Zero Span function of spectrum analyzers is very useful when the instrument is used in time domain measurements. In this video, an AM signal is used for the testing and analysis throughout the ...

This video demonstrates how to use the peak function of a RIGOL spectrum analyzer. In this experiment, the DG4000 arbitrary waveform generator is used to source the signal, while the DSA815 spectrum ...

The NanoVNA made network analyzers cheap enough for almost everyone. Now you can get a $49 spectrum analyzer to go with it. Is it worth it? Watch [IMSAI Guy]’s video after the break for his opinion.

I suppose most of us have had the experience of going to the mailbox and seeing that telltale package in the white plastic bag, the sign that something has just arrived from China. This happened to me ...

A general-purpose vector signal analyzer offers a low-cost, flexible option for measuring the frequency settling time of PLLs. By Douglas Olney, Keithley Instruments Inc. The frequency-settling time ...

Vortex light carries orbital angular momentum (OAM) characterized by exp(ilθ), where θ is the angular coordinate and l is the topological charge (TC) 1. OAM beams have been widely used in a variety of ...

For a long time, spectrum analyzers and scanning receivers have been widely used in EMI laboratories. The technical capabilities of these instruments are similar to those of a classic stepped EMI ...

Let’s say a corporate engineer or a consultant is coming to your station to diagnose and repair a problem using an RF spectrum analyzer. This would be a great time to schedule a meeting with your ...
