Enhance your RF power amplifier measurement setup

Improve your measurement setup

In many characterization and production test runs, a large amount of data needs to be taken. This needs to be done as quickly as possible with accuracy and repeatability options that meet the demanding specifications of the device under test. Deembedding of the test fixture helps improve the accuracy, while server based testing and instrument integrated sequencing increases production throughput and minimizes characterization time.

Latest communication standards increase the modulation complexity up to 4k QAM while in addition extend the signal bandwidth as we see it in Wi-Fi7. Enhancements on the test equipment allow to go above and beyond the resulting EVM requirements with noise cancellation on the analyzer and internal digital predistortion on the signal generator.
