Calibration always seems to be scheduled at the most critical time in a project. For example, assume that a piece of test equipment is on a six-month calibration cycle. At month five, the design ...

Making accurate delta-time measurements can be difficult, especially when trying to measure jitter. To ensure accuracy, you need to understand the various types of delta-time measurements, as well as ...

New research shows that X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) can give misleading analysis results due to an erroneous assumption during calibration. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) is often ...

It is a stringent requirement for all quality systems to calibrate the equipment used for measurements. The International Vocabulary of Metrology defines the term calibration as an “operation that, ...

Designing and testing communications systems with analog baseband I/Q (BBIQ) circuits can be a challenge for RF engineers. The goal is to make traditional signal-analysis measurements in the spectral ...
