A VCXO is a crystal oscillator where its output frequency changes in direct proportion to the application of an input control voltage. There are many names given or assigned to this output frequency being changed with the control voltage, which can be confusing.
Absolute Pulling Range (APR) has become a very...
This application note is about creating your own battery model for the R&S®NGM200, beyond the standard models provided within the battery simulation option NGM-K106. The main purpose is to gradually discharge a battery or a rechargeable battery using the internal QuickArb function. The discharge of the battery...

To investigate the stability of a switched-mode power supply, a Bode plot created with an oscilloscope is ideal for checking the critical phase margin and gain margin values. The factors that determine how satisfactory the results from Bode plot measurements will be, need to taken into consideration as part of the preparation....
Safety, availability, and cost considerations can make performing thorough tests of embedded control devices
using the complete system impractical.
Hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation is a real-time test technique used to test these devices more efficiently.
During HIL test, the physical system that interfaces...
Rail voltages are getting smaller, and tolerances are decreasing. As a result, making accurate power rail measurements has become much more difficult.
Industry dynamics are driving both a decrease in rail voltage values as well as tighter tolerances across a wide range of rails. Making an accurate ripple measurement...
The demands for faster wireless access and lower latency are continuously increasing. To meet these demands and to drive new use cases, regulatory bodies around the world open up spectrum in the 6 GHz band for unlicensed use. This new spectrum allows the Wi-Fi 6 standard, IEEE 802.11ax, to unfold its full power. It will...
