New test and measurement kits include two families of oscilloscopes

RS Components now stocks a wide selection of products from Keysight Technologies.

The InfiniiVision 4000X and 6000X series of oscilloscopes provide large displays and large touchscreen displays with a unique ‘zone trigger’ feature, which assists engineers, scientists and technicians to isolate hard-to-capture signals. The multi-function scopes also provide what is claimed to be the industry's fastest waveform update rate of one million waveforms per second. Both families are anticipated to find employment in a series of applications including embedded system design and debug, power design and analysis, in the automotive field, and in many other systems that require analogue, digital, serial and RF signal analysis.

The higher-end 6000X series also provides performance up to 6GHz and 20G-sample/s and combines digital channels, serial protocol analysis, built-in dual-channel waveform generator, frequency response analysis, built-in digital multimeter and 10-digit counter with totaliser. Also, it weighs 6.8kg and is 15.4cm deep and uses only 200W.

Designed for RF system design and EMC compliance testing applications, the next family is the N9300 series, which comprises the N9320B RF spectrum analyser, N9322C basic spectrum analyser, and N9310A RF signal generator. Producing high bandwidth capability up to 7GHz to satisfy demands for all the latest communications standards, the family also offers easy-to-use ‘single-button’ testing, which makes them excellent for production applications, along with remote-control capabilities allowing their use in harsh environments.

The N6705C DC power analyser mainframe unit, in conjunction with the N678x series of source/measure units, provides battery drain analysis and functional testing and offers fast visualisation of current drain from amps down to nanoamps in a single pass to help characterise power use to achieve extended battery life. Accurately emulating a battery and offering a compact and highly versatile platform for the testing of ATE or portable devices, the mainframe unit and SMUs provide stable and glitch-free sourcing and sinking.

Lastly, and excellent for calibration laboratory and test engineers, the 3458A digital multimeter offers 8½-digit precision with leading-edge direct-current-voltage (DCV) accuracy of up to 8ppm over one year; fast measurement speeds up to 100,000 readings per second; and a self-adjusting and self-verifying auto-calibration capability.
