The difference between TDR instruments and scope-based TDR measurements

April 2, 2021 By dherres

Often a transmission line is buried, concealed behind finish surfaces, or otherwise not readily accessible. So it is difficult to locate faults by means of visual inspection. It is, however, feasible to locate such discontinuities via a test instrument known as the time domain reflectometer (TDR). The TDR is sometimes compared to a radar installation, […]

Don’t get zapped — Using test instruments safely

January 21, 2021 By dherres

Most engineers think they’ve minimized the chance of nasty surprises around the test bench when they’ve grounded their instruments and perhaps kept one hand in their pocket when working around high voltages. That said, there remain electrical hazards that are less obvious. They involve the electrical wiring and the environment around the lab. To begin, […]

Basics of digital oscilloscope architecture

January 14, 2021 By dherres

A digital storage oscilloscope (DSO) is characterized by the presence of a microprocessor, which is physically and functionally at the heart of the processing section. Other stages in the processor are the acquisition memory, at its input and the display memory at its output. The DSO’s signal paths (one for each channel) begin at the […]

Isolated scope probes feature high bandwidth, dynamic range, CMRR

October 27, 2020 By Lee Teschler

The second-generation IsoVu Isolated Oscilloscope Probes, called the TIVP Series, extend the applications for isolated probe technology to the entire power system design market with a smaller size, improved ease of use, and enhanced electrical performance. Making accurate measurements on high-speed ungrounded systems can be nearly impossible using traditional differential probes. Engineers working with wide-bandgap […]

Basics of measuring fuel cells

October 9, 2020 By dherres

A fuel cell converts oxygen or another oxidizing agent and hydrogen or some other fuel into electricity and heat. A third byproduct, depending on the fuel used, is methane or another non-earth-friendly substance. But the most basic fuel cell combines hydrogen and oxygen to produce pure water. This simple, long-lasting device with no moving parts […]
