How to generate reports in EMI mode

Posted on: December 16th, 2020 by Doug Lovell

16/12/2020
Once the testing and debugging is complete, use the EMI Measurement Application to generate complete test reports with notes, screenshots, and data. Integrate test, debug, and reporting all on one platform for consistency and productivity. Watch the EMI Mode create html and pdf reports for the test archive....

How to configure traces and detectors in EMI mode

Posted on: December 16th, 2020 by Doug Lovell

16/12/2020
An important first step for Pre-Compliance is selecting the detectors to start with. Different detectors may limit your sweep speed and change the meaning of the results. Learn how to set up detectors and traces....

UltraSpectrum Compatibility with DSA800 and RSA5000/3000 series Remote control options

Posted on: December 16th, 2020 by Doug Lovell

16/12/2020
For DSA875/832/832E: If you experience a defective UltraSpectrum display while connected to a DSA875/DSA832/DSA832E series spectrum analyser, the most likely cause is due to a UltraSpectrum and firmware version mismatch. To correct the issue, download the firmware version 1.06 for DSA875/DSA832/DSA832E from the below dow...

How to measure an RF Amplifier using a DSA-800 Series Spectrum Analyser

Posted on: December 14th, 2020 by Doug Lovell

14/12/2020
Solution: This document provides step-by-step instructions on using the Rigol DSA-800 series of Spectrum Analysers to measure the characteristics of an RF Amplifier. In addition to the DSA-800 Spectrum Analyser, you will need an RF Source, cabling, and adapters. Measure the amplifier 1. Connect the RF generator output to the RF input of the instrument using the appropriate cabling and con...

How do I measure an RF Bandpass filter

Posted on: December 14th, 2020 by Doug Lovell

14/12/2020
This document provides step-by-step instructions on using the Rigol DSA-800 series of Spectrum Analysers to measure the characteristics of an RF Bandpass filter. NOTE: The DSA must have a Tracking Generator to effectively perform the following test. Normalize the trace (Optional) Many elements in an RF signal path can have nonlinear characteristics. In many cases, these nonlinear effects on...

EMC Precompliance: Testing on a budget

Posted on: December 14th, 2020 by Doug Lovell

14/12/2020
Solution: Almost any electronic design slated for commercial use is subject to EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) testing. Any company intending to sell these products into a country must ensure that the product is tested versus specifications set forth by the regulatory body of that country. Here in the US, the FCC specifies rules on EMC testing. CISPR and IEC are also used throughout the worl...

AMK: What do you get with the DSA Advanced Measurement Kit ? (DSA1000-AMK)

Posted on: December 14th, 2020 by Doug Lovell

14/12/2020
Advanced Measurement Functions Option DSA1000-AMK provides plenty of advanced measurement functions including T-Power (Time domain Power), ACP (Adjacent Channel Power), Chan Pwr (Channel Power), OBW (Occupied Bandwidth), EBW (Emission Bandwidth), C/N Ratio, Harmo Dist (Harmonic Distortion), TOI (Third Order Intermodulation) and Pass/Fail. The measure mode can be Single or Continuous and you can c...

Is there an attenuator built-in on RIGOL’s DSA815?

Posted on: December 14th, 2020 by Doug Lovell

14/12/2020
Yes, but you should still take care never to exceed the DSA815's max input power or voltage (+20dBm or 100mW and 50VDC abs. max - pulsed waveforms can easily exceed this e.g. direct from a LISN - see below). The DSA internal attenuator function is variable to give relative 0-30dB and whilst it does not increase the permissible power, it is designed to allow the instrument to optimise its dynamic r...

I just received mine… how can I tell if it’s working OK?

Posted on: December 14th, 2020 by Doug Lovell

14/12/2020
First follow the procedure for Factory Reset. Then check the noise performance is as it should be. You will need a carefully sequence of settings for this… use the quick video tip on our RIGOL pages....

How to reduce or lower noise floor? (DSA815 and DSA1030)

Posted on: December 14th, 2020 by Doug Lovell

14/12/2020
How to reduce or lower noise floor? (DSA815 and DSA1030) Last Updated: 01/08/2014 A simple sequence of settings will help you dig into the noise floor. With any Spectrum Analyser, setting up the (1) Span, (2) Attenuator, (3) Pre-amp and (4) Resolution Bandwidth settings - these are all important starting points to getting the best noise floor. Remember, safety first (no input or power RF nearby)...
