In RF testing, an essential attribute of every RF signal generator is the maximum output power it can supply to a device under test (DUT) while maintaining spectral purity and level accuracy. The ...

Historically, generator inspections require rotor removal (Figure 1). There’s a significant level of risk during this process due to possible generator damage during the disassembly, and it also ...

Testing digital designs usually requires one or more digital signals, some of which can be very difficult to generate. Pattern generators are specifically designed to address this problem. Whatever ...

You use an active-load test circuit to ensure that a power supply for a microprocessor or for other digital loads supplies 100A transient currents. This active load can provide a dc load for a power ...

If these signals exhibit a simple, periodic waveform, such as with sine, square, or triangular waves, the generators are called function generators. They are often used to check the function of ...
