Low-phase noise frequency synthesisers
15 December, 2004 | Supplied by: http://www.asdtech.com.au/
Wenzel Associates has released low jitter phase noise sources featuring Blue Tops technology for operating and testing new components and systems. Such applications include radar local oscillators, communications systems, phase noise measurement systems and low jitter clocks for testing data converters and other high performance semiconductors. These systems often require a source that provides several frequencies at a time with virtually no spurious content and high quality phase noise.

In the last of a three-part series on interference in wireless systems, we look at all the different types of potential interfering signals and how to identify them
Passive component analyser
27 September, 2004 | Supplied by: http://www.farnellinone.com.au/
The Atlas LCR passive component analyser from Peak simplifies the testing of passive components.Traditional LCR bridges are inherently complex and very time consuming to use. This analyser does everything automatically, it tells the user the component type in addition to component value data. What's more, it automatically selects the best signal level and frequency for the particular component under test.

Vicom has expanded the functionality for the 2975 Radio Test Set for Project 25 (P25) testing from IFR, a designer of advanced test solutions that include wireless radio test sets, signal sources, avionics and frequency agile test, microwave test, signal analysers and ATE (automated test equipment).
Continuous wave illuminator
30 June, 2004 | Supplied by: http://www.cea.com.au/
The CEA-MOUNT Illuminator is an active phased array Continuous Wave Illuminator (CWI) that integrates with ship combat systems to provide target illumination and missile uplink for semi-active homing missiles (SM-2/ESSM).
Receiver for phase noise analyser
30 June, 2004 | Supplied by: http://www.psi.com.au/
Poseidon Scientific Instruments (PSI) has released the 5 MHz to 1 GHz receiver OR-102A for use with its ODIN-320A phase noise analyser. The receiver enables engineers to perform automated phase noise measurements at low frequencies on quartz crystal and surface acoustic wave (SAW) oscillators. Moreover, the residual noise of amplifiers, or any two port device, can be automatically measured in combination with PSI's upcoming delay line device.
