- Internal test routines for automated or interactive preview & final measurements
- Evaluation functions for prescan, data reduction (peak list) and final measurement
- Split screen display (mixed analyzer/receiver mode) for detailed signal analysis
- Convenient scan table editor: Up to ten subranges with individual parameter setting
- Automatic scan and display of traces in parallel (receiver mode): Max. four traces with up to 80.000 samples each (250.000 samples with one trace)
- Time-domain measurements (zero span) at up to 50 ns resolution for interference source analysis
Each R&S®ESIB combines the high sensitivity, large dynamic range and selectivity of a high-end EMI test receiver with the flexibility and speed of a top-class spectrum analyzer. The R&S®ESIB EMI test receivers fully comply with the basic standard CISPR 16-1-1 and carry out measurements in conformance with all civil and military EMI standards such as CISPR, EN, VDE, ANSI, FCC, BS, ETS, VCCI, MIL-STD, VG, DEF-STAN, etc.
Outstanding performance
- Frequency range 20 Hz to 7 GHz, 26.5 GHz or 40 GHz, depending on model
- Very high sensitivity (NF typ. 10 dB)
- Excellent large-signal immunity (1 dB comp.: +10 dBm)
- Low measurement uncertainty (< 1 dB up to 1 GHz)
- High measurement speed and result processing (min. meas. time 100 µs)
- Low inherent noise (<-3 dBµV)
- The upper frequency limit of the R&S®ESIB26 and R&S®ESIB40 can be extended up to 110 GHz by means of external mixers (options R&S®FSE-B21 and mixers R&S®FS-Zxx required).
Scope of application
Each R&S®ESIB offers features and test routines for the various stages of product development as well as for the final EMC certification tests. The main users of the R&S®ESIB are:
- EMC test houses and service providers
- Governmental organizations
- Safety standard authorities
- Military
- Large industrial development and EMC labs (e.g. automotive)
Description
Excellent technical specifications have been a distinguishing mark of Rohde & Schwarz EMI test receivers right from the beginning. The ¸ESIB family of EMI test receivers combines the high sensitivity, large dynamic range and selectivity of a highend test receiver with the fl exibility and speed of a top-class spectrum analyzer in one instruments. The ¸ESIB family comprises three models with different upper frequency limits: ESIB 7 (20 Hz to 7 GHz) ¸ESIB 26 (20 Hz to 26.5 GHz) ¸ESIB 40 (20 Hz to 40 GHz).
