EMI test receivers

The indispensable core component of every EMC test strategy

EMI test receivers; extremely accurate instruments designed to detect electromagnetic emissions rigorously, to ensure all emissions conform to the Standard being tested to. Configured to set up running the required tests for parameters defined by the Standards as simply as possible, including automated test routines. R&S EMI test receivers can be much more too, with a full signal and spectrum analyzer in the same instrument.

R&S EMI test receivers support the full range of commercial, automotive and military EMI Standards from all leading Standard authorities, including IEC, CISPR, CENELEC, ETSI, FCC, ANSI, RTCA and MIL-STD. All the latest amendments including the fast FFT-based time-domain scan that makes testing many times faster than conventional frequency scans, are all supported. The instruments cover all required frequency ranges up to 44 GHz, with frequencies up to 500 GHz supported by external mixers.

R&S supplies both full compliance and precompliance EMI test receivers. Fully compliant receivers implement all requirements of the above mentioned Standards, needed for certification testing. Precompliance receivers are an ideal cost/benefit solution for EMI testing during development. They implement bandwidths, limits and detectors defined by the standards, but do not entirely meet the exacting demands of full compliance.
