Laboratory-class measurements in a field-portable format
Complete measurements
Complete portability
The new Yokogawa DL350 combines features of a general-purpose oscilloscope and those of a high-performance data acquisition recorder in a single, portable instrument. Read my article in ee Design, July-August 2017 edition, pages 23/24.
Testing Power Electronic Systems Efficiently
With today’s increased incorporation of power electronics and switching devices in overall system design, there is a growing need for accurate measurement of both the power behavior of the applied power electronics and other inter-related electrical and physical parameters. My article in Power Electronics Europe • February/March 2016 describes the types of instruments available for these types of measurements and the selection criteria.
Achieving better resolution, accuracy and signal clarity with an oscilloscope
Oscilloscopes and related measuring instruments are often selected on the basis of their specified resolution but, as my article in Electronic Specifier Test & Measurement Magazine shows, there are a number of other factors that need to be taken into account to achieve the optimum results in terms of accuracy and signal clarity.
Real-time maths functions enhance Yokogawa DL850 ScopeCorder waveform recording
In this article in the Electronics Weekly test and measurement supplement in June 2013, I describe how the Yokogawa DL850 ScopeCorder is used as a measurement system for real-time calculations of power and efficiency in power electronics devices. Examples include the display of the measurement results of a rotating body in polar coordinates in real time: for example when measuring the wobble of a rotating body, the measurement of transient power and the measurement of the electrical angle of motors.
Test instruments evolve to meet automotive challenges
The increased use of advanced electronic technologies in modern cars poses considerable challenges to the test and measurement engineer, both at the design debugging stage and for general-purpose performance and maintenance purposes. The modern motor vehicle may contain sophisticated embedded systems linked with the engine control unit as well as serial buses for communications information and control signals throughout the vehicle.
