The Tekbox TBCG4 harmonic comb generator produces a wide range of known frequencies for EMC immunity testing and routine checking of EMC chambers. I’ve used harmonic comb generators for decades in various applications, including antenna measurements, cable resonance measurements, and shielding-effectiveness testing. I also find them useful for checking the daily consistency of test chambers […]

IMS 2024 roundup: test equipment
Washington, DC — The 2024 International Microwave Symposium took place here in June at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center. As always, RF/microwave/mmWave test equipment was all over the exhibit hall. Frequency-domain test equipment — spectrum analyzers, vector network analyzers, power meters, and signal generators — were, of course, dominant. Other equipment, such as oscilloscopes […]
Hi-rez 350-MHz DSOs sport 12-bit resolution
The new SIGLENT SDS2000X HD Series High-Resolution Digital Storage Oscilloscopes feature 2GSa/sec 12-bit A/D converters with an extremely low 70 μVrms noise floor front end to provide a signal analysis tool with over 16 times the resolution of ordinary 8-bit oscilloscopes. This is ideal for examining small variations on large signals. The SDS2000X HD series […]
Dual-independent-channel AWGs feature up to 1 GHz bandwidth, 5 Gsa/sec sampling
Siglent’s SDG7000A series of dual-independent-channel arbitrary waveform generators feature up to 1 GHz bandwidth, 5 Gsa/sec sampling, 14-bit vertical resolution, and a memory depth of 512 Mpts. Arbitrary waveforms are generated with sample rates from 0.01 Sa/sec to 2.5 GSa/sec, and vector signals at 500 MSa/sec. A wide variety of test signals can be generated, […]
Economical 2-GHz DSOs sample at 5 GSa/sec
The Siglent SDS6000A Series of four-channel digital storage oscilloscopes include models available in bandwidths of 500 MHz, 1 GHz, and 2 GHz offering a sample rate of 5 GSa/sec (10 GSa/sec ESR) on each channel, a large memory depth of 500 Mpts, and the option to provide synchronous mixed signal analysis ability by adding 16 […]
VNAs cover 9 kHz to 8.5 GHz with 1-Hz resolution
The Siglent SNA5000A series of two- and four-port vector network analyzers offer a frequency analysis range of 9 kHz up to 8.5 GHz with a resolution of 1 Hz, a dynamic range of 125 dB, and a level resolution of 0.05 dB. The Siglent SNA5000A series consists of four models (4.5 GHz or 8.5 GHz […]
Economical 4-channel 100-MHz scope features advanced triggering, deep memory
The SDS1104X-U four-channel 100-MHz oscilloscope is a lower priced, economy version of the very popular SDS1104X-E. Many excellent features have been retained, including the large 7-in TFT-LCD display and ergonomic front panel design, while economies have been made by removing the optional MSO and function generator upgrade capabilities, a reduced time-base resolution and vertical resolution, […]
