We know that spectrum and vector signal analyzers give us deep insight into a signal's properties, but do we really know what's going on under the hood? What are we to make of all those specifications ...

This video shows how to measure RIGOL DSA815’s phase noise. It also includes a brief explanation on the basic principles of phase noise specification. In the experiment, the DG4000 arbitrary waveform ...

There are many ways to look at the world, and many ways to look at electronic signals. Many fundamental instruments, such as voltmeters and oscilloscopes, use a time-oriented approach. They provide ...

Many spectrum analyzers include tracking generators, but some new engineers my not completely understand what the purpose is and how they can help with certain measurements. In a nutshell, tracking ...

Spectrum analyzers are crucial in electronic warfare and signals intelligence, enabling detection, interception, and analysis of enemy signals to protect friendly communications and disrupt ...

A hardware device or software used to examine the frequency and power components of a signal. It provides more information than an oscilloscope, because it can display the signals over a range of ...

Maintaining a wireless network in a business environment can be a royal pain in the neck. Just because your wireless network worked flawlessly yesterday, doesn't mean that some new and unknown ...

[Ryan] wanted a spectrum analyzer for his audio equipment. Rather than grab a micro, he did it the analog way. [Ryan] designed a 10 band audio spectrum analyzer. This means that he needs 10 band-pass ...

[El Artis] just finished building an audio spectrum analyzer that uses a character LCD. The uses an Arduino to drive the display, but unlike other meters that use the microcontroller for analysis, [El ...
