The average textbook definition of modulation reads: modulation is a process in which the frequency, phase or amplitude of a carrier wave varies in step with the instantaneous value of the modulating ...

Oscilloscope measurement parameters provide accurate measurements of acquired waveforms. Most digital oscilloscopes offer around twenty-five standard parameters like frequency, peak-to-peak amplitude, ...

In the process of debugging and validating both digital and RF designs, the oscilloscope Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) function and a variety of other math functions can prove valuable to designers ...

There was a time when every broadcast engineer had an oscilloscope for troubleshooting and aligning equipment, from a microphone input to the antenna. It is true that the nature of our plug-and-play ...

Oscilloscopes remain a hot topic on the RF DesignLine, so I had a virtual “sit down” with some leaders in the industry to see where the technology is, and where they think it is going. The following ...

Tektronix has released its SignalVu Spectrum Analyzer Software, Version 5.4, for multi-channel modulation analysis of up to eight signals in parallel. Engineers can use this software to turn their ...

Test and measurement (T&M) vendor Tektronix has added 50 GHz and 23 GHz models to its DPO70000SX Performance Oscilloscope series. Currently, Tektronix has 70 GHz and 33 GHz models. The new 50 GHz ...
