What are network analyzers used for?

common problems 5050

Network analyzers perform component characterization tests. Network analyzers provide a calibrated excitation signal to the RF network or device under test (DUT) and measure the vector response at frequency with phase and amplitude information. Transmission (transmission coefficient, insertion loss, gain), reflection (reflection coefficient, VSWR, return loss), and impedance measurements, as well as the s-parameters S11, S12, S21, and S22, are available from a single VNA.

  • How do I test a DC power supply?

    567

    There are several ways to test a DC power supply, here we only introduce a few common methods. Conductivity test: You can use the multimeter's conductivity mode to accomplish this test. Touch the positive and negative terminals of the power supply with the multimeter pen. If it is on, the multimeter will beep. This test is designed to determine if the power supply is delivering power and if there are any breaks in the wiring. Voltage...

  • What are spectrum analyzers used for?

    700

    Spectrum analyzers measure the amplitude of an input signal versus frequency over the entire frequency range to determine the power of the signal. Spectrum analyzers are capable of performing tests such as noise figure and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) to characterize the performance of a device and its contribution to overall system performance. For more information, see the application guide Spectrum Analysis Basics. ,

  • What is alternating current (AC)?

    482

    Alternating current (AC) is a type of electric current whose polarity reverses periodically and whose amplitude varies continuously over time. AC power is often used in businesses and homes because it is cheaper and more efficient to generate and transmit than direct current (DC) power. During transmission, a transformer can reduce power loss by increasing or decreasing the voltage of the AC line. Alternating current (AC) is a form of household electricity -...

  • How to use an arbitrary waveform generator?

    549

    Using an arbitrary waveform generator, test engineers can verify the design of a circuit in just a few steps: (1) activate the output control; (2) select the waveform to be generated; (3) connect the output to the device under test; and (4) verify the performance of the device under test using an oscilloscope. The following is an example of the design of the output control circuit.
