Key Specifications |
|
High-Resolution TDR. Confidently characterize normal cables and connectors so that you can identify impedance abnormalities early. The BNC (black) and SMA (red) connectors show approximately 0.8 Ω and 0.4 Ω excess impedance, respectively.
Subpixel Sampling. Subpixel sampling ensures that every detectable cable fault is visible at every horizontal scale. The figure shows effect of subpixel sampling on an 820 ft. (250 m) cable with highlighted 8 Ω fault detected using subpixel sampling.
S-Parameter Frequency Domain Measurements. The figure shows S11 Return Loss plot (orange) and TDR waveform(red) of a 2.4 GHz WiFi patch antenna, showing average return loss of 21.5 dB from 2.3-2.7 GHz.
S11 Return Loss Between Cursors. The CT100B TDR provides the unique ability to time-window or de-embed the feature of interest such as a connector or cable fault increasing measurement accuracy. In this case the figure shows cursors selecting an SMA connector with corresponding time-windowed S11 return loss plot.
Smith Chart Display of Frequency-Domain Data. Use Smith charts to simplify complex impedance matching tasks. Measure complex impedance at the cursor position. The figure shows Smith chart of a 200 Ω terminator with cursor at 0.0 MHz.
Intermittent / Transient Fault Detection. Use the CT100B’s Envelope mode to capture transient faults down to 2 ms temporal resolution. The figure shows intermittent fault detection with left cursor at the fault location.
