Modulation Distortion Up To 8.5 GHz
S930700B
-
S930700B enables fast and accurate active-device modulation distortion characterization under modulated stimulus condition up to 8.5 GHz. The wide dynamic range and vector error correction of the PNA-X result in an extremely low residual EVM of the test setup, so you can get a complete picture of your device’s performance without test system interference. S930700B can measure EVM, NPR, ACPR, and can decompose nonlinear signals and linear signals with the spectral correlation between input and output spectrum without doing demodulation. Integration with the PNA-X SCCM provides quick modulation distortion measurements while making other VNA measurements.

ACCUplace Dot Distortion Target
AP-DD Series
-
All machine vision lenses will show some type of distortion. Minimizing or correcting that distortion is crucial in most applications. The ACCUplace Dot Distortion target is designed to detect the presence of both barrel/pincushion distortion as well as alignment distortion that causes the keystone effect. The precise amount of distortion is determined from an array of precisely placed dots in a regular array. The results can be used to correct for any distortion that occurs within the optical system. The AP-DD is offered on three standard substrates; Chrome on Glass (CG) Opal (OP) and Photo Paper (RM).

Audio Generator
AG-51
-
The AG-51 Audio Generator contains a low distortion 20 Hz to 200 kHz sine wave generator, an SMPTE standard intermodulation signal generator and a fixed frequency sine wave generator at 3.15 kHz for wow and flutter tests. Signal outputs are simultaneously available at levels of up to +20 dBm (equivalent sine wave power for complex signals) at separate left (L OUT) and right (R OUT) output connectors. Outputs may be selected for left (L) only, right (R) only, left and right in phase (L+R), and left and right in phase opposition (L-R). Fully balanced or unbalanced outputs at impedance levels 150 ohms or 600 ohms are front panel selectable. Three precision attenuators (10, 1.0 and 0.1 dB) provide a dynamic range of 99.9 dB in 0.1 dB steps. Attenuator dials display the output level directly in dBm in the 150 ohm source impedance configuration. Automatic output leveling circuitry with a built-in self-test feature provides a constant output level thereby eliminating the need for output metering. In the TEST mode the generator output level is reduced to zero, a useful feature during noise measurements.

Renishaw Styli
-
Advanced Industrial Measurement Systems
Renishaw’s styli are some of the most accurate in the market. The balls on the end of the styli are bonded to the stems to ensure that there is no wiggle room – as compared to the traditional ball drilling method to fix the stem to the ball – which causes distortions, and thus measurement errors. Renishaw’s styli are a much more capable option for the CMM. These balls also perfectly spherical, are located at the optimum position on the stem, are threaded nicely and are extremely sturdy during measurement. Additionally, Revolution® CMM’s are supplied with Renishaw Grade 5 High Accuracy Styli.
