Rohde & Schwarz RTO6-K31 - Power Analysis Upgrade (Catalog: 1801.6858.02)

The R&S RTO6-K31 power analysis option extends the R&S RTO64 firmware with measurement functionality focused on switched mode power supplies (SMPS) and DC/DC converters.

Specialized measurement functions and harmonic current analysis

Characterize power electronics with the R&S RTO6 oscilloscope power analysis option. Automated measurement functions analyze the turn on/off behavior, the internal transfer function, the safe operating area (SOA), the output signal quality, and switching losses. You can also test all common international standards.

Maintaining fast sampling rates with deep memory

Analyzing start-up, shut-down or transients of power supplies requires a high sample rate and long recording times. With up to 1 Gpoints memory, R&S RTO6 oscilloscopes enable recording of lengthy sequences while maintaining high sampling rates of up to 20 Gsample/s.

Probes for high voltage, current, and near-field measurements

The Rohde & Schwarz oscilloscope probe portfolio includes specific probes for power measurements and EMI debugging. The portfolio covers high voltage probes and differential probes for voltages up to 6000 V (peak) with exceptional common mode rejection ratios over a broad frequency range, as well as current probes for accurate, non-intrusive measurements of DC and AC currents in the range of 1 mA to 2000 A with a maximum bandwidth of up to 120 MHz. E and H near-field probes are available for the frequency range from 9 kHz to 3 GHz with optional preamplifier for EMI debugging.

Accurately measure ripple and PARD

As power rail tolerance levels decrease, accurately measuring power ripple becomes increasingly difficult. The inherent low noise of R&S RTO6 oscilloscopes enables accurate power integrity measurements at the millivolt level. The fast update rate of the oscilloscopes allows you to quickly see infrequent and worst case ripple as well as periodic and random disturbance (PARD) anomalies.

Find coupled sources

The most capable FFT in the industry lets you can see switching characteristics or quickly scan for sources coupled with the power rail. The FFT algorithm allows you to analyze the spectrum independently of the time domain settings. This provides a quick and comprehensive picture of your power rails.

R&S ProbeMeter: Integrated voltmeter for precise DC measurements

The R&S ProbeMeter lets you see the oscilloscope waveform and DC value regardless of other instrument settings, just like a highly accurate voltmeter. All voltage probes with Rohde & Schwarz probe interfaces support the R&S ProbeMeter.
