New Solid State Broadband E-field Sources Introduced

 

AR recently introduced a set of new solid state broadband E-field sources with integrated horn antennas designed to replace traveling wave tube (TWT) amplifiers for immunity testing. The new E-filed sources are controlled by a master controller. There are two frequency ranges; 18 to 26.5 GHz and 26.5 to 40 GHz. Two field levels are available; 20 V/m and 50 V/m (both measured at … [Read more...]

18 GHz Real-Time Measurement for Full Compliance Testing with High Precision

 

Emissions measurements of the electrical field strength in the frequency range of 1 GHz to 40 GHz are carried out in an anechoic chamber or at an open area test site. Usually these measurements are very time-consuming as the points of maximum radiation have to be found over all angular positions of the device under test (DUT) as well as over all antenna heights. DUTs with … [Read more...]

ESD Effects of Digital ICs

 

One issue I see fairly often with unshielded consumer or commercial products is CPU resets during periods of immunity testing, such as during electrostatic discharge  (ESD) testing. Untreated, this can lead to field failures and associated customer satisfaction issues. The remedy is usually quite simple and IC manufacturers even mention the solution, but it’s usually buried … [Read more...]

New 9kHz to 6GHz Handheld Isotropic Antenna Released

 

The new IsoLOG 3D Mobile, Aaronia’s latest development, is an ultra light and small isotropic antenna which is compatible to any spectrum analyzer. It just works on the fly and is a perfect plug and play solution for 3D measurements in limited time frames. The antenna requires no software installation, no power connection and no hardware changes. It is connectable via the N … [Read more...]

Assembling A Low Cost EMI Troubleshooting Kit – Part 2 (Immunity)

 

This article concludes the two-part series, Assembling Your Own EMI Troubleshooting Kit – Part 1, which included a listing of the major components of a complete EMI trouble shooting kit that can be easily transported where needed. Most of the probes and tools listed in Part 1 were useful for troubleshooting radiated emissions. In Part 2, we’ll discuss several other useful … [Read more...]

Radio Equipment Directive

 

This article provides an update on changes occurring as a result of the new Radio Equipment Directive (RED) 2014/53/EU which can be used from June of 2016. It looks at the changes in the product and regulatory landscape and what it means to equipment manufacturers. More detail on the history of the RED can be found in the article, Radio Equipment Directive, in the … [Read more...]
