In this video, learn what oscilloscope bandwidth is, and what it is not, and see two measurements that help you tell if you are being band-limited by an oscilloscope. The episode was sponsored by Rohde & Schwarz.

Measurements with an SMU | Workbench Wednesdays #40https://www.baldengineer.com/measurements-with-an-smu-workbench-wednesdays-40.htmlTue, 22 Jun 2021 22:43:00 +0000https://www.baldengineer.com/?p=8340Source Measurement Units, or SMUs, combine an accurate power supply, high-power electronic load, and precise digital voltmeter into a signal unit. They are a four-quadrant source. That means they can provide power to a circuit or consume it. With an SMU you can characterize semiconductor devices (like Diodes), monitor the power consumption of a circuit, or simulate a battery. In this video, see the difference between an SMU and a Power Supply.Spectrum Analyzer Basics | Workbench Wednesdayshttps://www.baldengineer.com/spectrum-analyzer-basics.htmlThu, 17 Oct 2019 02:06:58 +0000https://www.baldengineer.com/?post_type=link&p=7953A spectrum analyzer displays signals in the frequency domain. To use one, you only need to know about four controls: reference level, center frequency, and resolution bandwidth. In this episode, see how to use a spectrum analyzer and determine the transmitting frequency of a device. The example device is my microphone transmitter. It operates around 500 MHz with FM modulation. You’ll see how I step through the spectrum analyzer controls to find the exact frequency. At the end of the episode, I show some advanced measurements you can do with a modern spectrum analyzer. My favorite one is the demodulation.
