Rohde & Schwarz presents R&S RT-ZISO remoted probing system for exact measurements of quick switching alerts

Rohde & Schwarz has developed the R&S RT-ZISO remoted probing system, additional elevating its cutting-edge oscilloscope portfolio. The brand new R&S RT-ZISO permits extraordinarily correct measurements of quick switching alerts, particularly in environments with excessive common-mode voltages and currents. Additionally new is the R&S RT-ZPMMCX passive probe with MMCX connector, which enhances the remoted probe system completely for sure measurement duties.

On the PCIM Europe Worldwide Exhibition and Convention in Nuremberg, Germany, Rohde & Schwarz is giving a sneak peek at its subsequent era R&S RT-ZISO remoted probing system. The R&S RT-ZISO will set new requirements in remoted probe know-how, delivering unprecedented accuracy, sensitivity, dynamic vary, and bandwidth for subsequent era large bandgap (WBG) energy designs with SiC and GaN.

The R&S RT-ZISO supplies exact differential measurements of as much as ±3 kV on reference voltages of ±60 kV with an increase time of < 450 ps and suppresses quick common-mode alerts that may distort and intervene with correct measurements. Its power-over-fiber structure galvanically isolates the system beneath check (DUT) from the measurement setup, offering a a lot larger common-mode rejection ratio (CMRR) than standard differential probes. Its key options embrace bandwidth choices of 100 MHz to 1 GHz (upgradeable), a CMRR of > 90 dB (> 30 000:1) at 1 GHz, an enter and offset vary of ±3 kV, a typical mode vary of ±60 kV, and a delicate enter vary of ±10 mV.

The R&S RT-ZISO remoted probe is the proper addition to the Rohde & Schwarz oscilloscope portfolio. With the devices of the following era MXO sequence (MXO 4, MXO 5, MXO 5C), the probe permits measurements with the world’s quickest acquisition within the time and spectrum area, because of the  oscilloscopes’ hardware-based acceleration. Together with the R&S RTO6, design engineers can use the probe for advanced evaluation duties that make the most of the oscilloscope’s excessive efficiency and superior measurement capabilities.

The R&S RT-ZISO is right for a variety of functions, together with switching evaluation of energy converters with WBG supplies, double-pulse testing, floating measurements, shunt measurements, inverter design, and motor drive evaluation. The remoted probing system comes with a variety of probe suggestions for various measurement wants, together with the micro-miniature coaxial (MMCX) connector, sq. pins, large sq. pins and the remoted passive prober. All connectors are rated for CAT III voltages as much as 1000 V. It’s the first passive remoted prober in the marketplace that enables customers to shortly entry the check level with out designated connectors. As well as, the usage of lengthy bandable cables permits the tricks to entry the DUT at numerous angles with no further mechanical stress.

R&S RT-ZPMMCX passive probe with MMCX connector

Together with the R&S RT-ZISO, Rohde & Schwarz can be presenting a brand new kind of passive probe with MMCX connector. The R&S RT-ZPMMCX helps a bandwidth vary of > 700 MHz with enter voltages of ±60 V DC and 30 V (RMS), making it the perfect complement to the R&S RT-ZISO remoted probing system for low-side gate measurements. The MMCX probe has a really low capacitive load of < 4 pF, which helps to keep up the very best sign integrity for preserving the switching waveform form and timing.

The R&S RT-ZISO remoted probing system and the R&S RT-ZPMMCX passive probe are each obtainable from Rohde & Schwarz. Guests to the PCIM Europe Worldwide Exhibition and Convention, June 11 to 13, 2024, in Nuremberg, Germany, can expertise them reside on the firm’s sales space 619 in corridor 7.
