Signal integrity is the primary measure of signal quality. Its importance increases with higher signal speed, oscilloscope bandwidth, the need to view small signals, or the need to see small changes ...
Sometimes the best way to describe how to analyze a communication cable common-mode (CM) noise problem is to describe an actual procedure. The following case history, which was provided by the late ...
When using accelerometers with long cables, you must be careful that the cables do not attenuate the signals at high frequencies. Engineers at PCB Piezotronics point out that such attenuation may ...
Testing cable assemblies for signal integrity usually requires connecting the cable assembly under test to a TDR (time-domain reflectometer) or to a VNA (vector-network analyzer) through some kind of ...
