Test meters used to just provide the basics: voltage, current, and resistance. Thanks to solid-state circuitry, though, today's instruments are packed with several features the typical electrician may ...

Milpitas, Calif.—Linear Technology has developed a wide dynamic range mean-squared RF detector that it claims sets a new level of accuracy and speed performance. The LT5570 provides accurate RMS (Root ...

It's hard to stay up to date when you are floating in a sea of technical jargon. However, it's imperative that engineers know the terminology associated with the areas in which they work. And that's ...

Three tools are typically used to measure vibrational noise (noise) - a storage Oscilloscope (scope); a vibration sensor (sensor), which is generally a 'seismic grade' accelerometer 1; and a ...
