What is the difference between a signal analyzer and a spectrum analyzer?

February 14, 2025common problems 9020

Spectrum analyzers are primarily used to measure the amplitude of an input signal in relation to its frequency. Signal analyzers, on the other hand, measure both the amplitude and phase of an input signal at a single frequency. For more information, please refer toTechnical overviewSpectrum Analyzers and Signal Analyzers.

What is the difference between an arbitrary waveform generator and a function generator?
February 14, 2025 781
The Function Generator provides a preset list of waveforms or code patterns that it can generate. In a function generator, the user can change waveform parameters such as frequency, amplitude, and offset, as well as add simple distortion. Arbitrary waveform generators are more complex and can emulate real-world signals. Arbitrary waveform generators utilize pre-stored digital data to generate these waveforms,...

How to use the current probe
February 14, 2025 887
Want to know how to use the current probe? Please first understand the following basic usage of the current probe and precautions for use. Since electricity is invisible, it is not possible to immediately determine whether a malfunction has occurred. In some cases, current measurements are required on a daily basis to prevent malfunctions, as well as to identify the cause of malfunctions when they do occur. Digital multimeters, clamp meters, and current probes can be used...

What are network analyzers used for?
February 14, 2025 698
Network analyzers perform component characterization tests. A network analyzer provides a calibrated excitation signal to an RF network or device under test (DUT) and measures the vector response at frequency with phase and amplitude information. A VNA provides transmission (transmission coefficient, insertion loss, gain), reflection (reflection coefficient, VSWR, return loss), and impedance measurements, as well as s...

What is a digital multimeter?
February 14, 2025 772
A multimeter is an instrument that can measure a wide range of parameters, such as alternating (AC) or direct current (DC) voltage, AC or DC current, resistance, temperature, capacitance, and so on. Modern digital multimeters use digital and logic technology to become smaller and smaller with more and more built-in functions. By introducing digital technology, digital multimeters can provide graphical displays, data logging and signal digitization as well as...
