The SCN series comes in three different sizes to fit most DUTs and combines very-high scan resolution of 0.1 mm with probe head rotation, and the best-in-class scanning SW to deliver powerful visualization of the EMC test. For boards with components of substantially different heights, the optional laser distance meter will enable you to follow the DUT’s topography and measure at a fixed distance from the DUT, automatically creating a precise 3D-model of the DUT.
A complete scanner system consists of the EMC-Scanner Hardware package, the Detectus Scanning SW (DSS), a Spectrum Analyzer and a PC to run the scanner SW. Pendulum Instruments can supply everything if required, but normally the user already possesses a PC and a Spectrum Analyzer.
Using the EMC-Scanner during the early stages of design enables you to detect potential emission and immunity problems before they become integrated into the product and expensive to correct.
The easy-to-use and feature-rich DSS SW let you measure and visualize the intensity and the location of a radiation source at a component level – or even inside a component. The results of such a measurement can be shown as two- or three-dimensional colored maps. The measurements can easily be repeated creating objective, comparative measurement results.
With 0.1mm step size of the scanner, you can pinpoint emission sources in densely packed designs, at comparable cost to 1mm scanners.
