The addition of a high-output RF signal generator not only simplifies your RF test setup, it also can overcome some of the issues associated with lossy cables and components. In RF testing, an ...

With the variety of instruments available today, designers can put their projects through the paces with just about any kind of imaginable signal. All electronic circuits and equipment receive input ...

As covered in my previous blog post, all diesel-powered generators should be loaded to at least 30% of their standby nameplate rating when exercised during their monthly test. If the connected load ...

Today’s mobile handsets contain an increasing number of radios and support new wireless standards that utilize wider bandwidths. As a result, handsets also contain power amplifiers that are becoming ...

One of the most important parts of successful power rentals is matching the generator to your customer's needs. A simple way to estimate the correct generator size is to consider the type of load the ...

Read more Test Ideas and Design Ideas here. As ICs increase in complexity and decrease in size, their pin counts drop or, at best, remain constant. The result: a need for pin-saving measures like ...

Analog Devices has an output stage IC designed particularly for arbitrary waveform generators and power supplies. It is rather pricey, at $86 from Digikey, for example ($360 for the eval kit) but can ...

[The LED Artist] often found a need for a relatively high voltage (100 to 200 Volt) but low current DC power supply, and it turns out that a small HV generator that uses a single AA cell only took ...
