Test & Measurement

The latest MID-compliant energy meter from Carlo Gavazzi is said to be the smallest device in the industry to offer direct three-phase connection up to 65A. Just four DIN modules wide, the EM23 DIN is also simple to use and easy to install, providing comprehensive and accurate measurements for energy cost sharing, cost allocation and utility metering applications.

Tektronix has announced new offerings of its active differential probes that complement the full portfolio of new DPO/DSA70000B Series real-time oscilloscopes also announced today. The expanded P7500 probing family now offers performance probes for 4, 6 and 8 GHz in addition to the previously available industry setting benchmark ultra-performance probes at 13, 16 and 20 GHz – all providing superior signal fidelity with fast rise time, low circ...

Tektronix has announced availability of the high-performance DPO70000B Digital Phosphor Oscilloscope (DPO) and DSA70000B Digital Serial Analyzer (DSA) Series. Already said to offer the highest available bandwidth for real-time oscilloscopes, and with an industry-best jitter noise floor, the new “B” models now also claim the best vertical noise performance, flattest frequency response, and greatest effective number of bits (ENOB). Adding to ...

Significant improvements in production line electrical safety testing are provided with the new PowerSmart automation and leakage test module by Clare Instruments. The module provides full leakage testing to EN 60990 and displays run test voltage and current during the functional tests. The power for the functional test can be either the internal supply or from the external connected electrical safety tester.

Skyray XRF (USA) has released the newest version of their Handheld XRF Analyzer to the North American market. The Pocket-III builds upon the strengths of previous versions with the addition of various features and application capabilities.

As the global economic climate places additional constraints on budgets, test engineers are challenged to identify ways to test devices more efficiently than ever before. National Instruments has identified three trends – software-defined instrumentation, parallel processing technologies and new methods for wireless and semiconductor test – that will significantly improve the efficiency of test and measurement systems in 2009.

Signal Forge has released a new battery-powered signal generator. With the introduction of the Signal Forge 1020 (SF1020), field test engineers now have the option to leave their large, heavy and expensive signal generators in the lab. The SF1020 is a small, lightweight battery-powered signal generator with a frequency range of 1 Hz to 1 GHz and numerous waveform modulation functions. It is ideal for applications such as building surveys, install...

The Yokogawa TY700 Series is a range of handheld digital multimeters which combine high accuracy, performance and reliability with a range of new functions for both electronics and general industrial applications.

The new APx585 from Audio Precision is the only audio analyser in the world capable of interfacing with HDMI and Blu-ray disc audio. With the APx HDMI option, engineers can now use the same familiar Audio Precision tools to measure HDMI audio quality and audio format compatibility on devices such as surround sound receivers, set-top boxes, HD TVs, and DVD and Blu-ray Disc(tm) players.

Aeroflex has announced that it has secured a series of sales for the recently launched TD-LTE version of its market-leading TM500 test mobile from various leading suppliers of cellular mobile infrastructure equipment in China. These orders for the new TM500 TD-LTE further strengthen Aeroflex's position as the leading provider of test mobiles for LTE, HSPA and WCDMA.
