Analyser splits the common from the differential

Laplace Instruments describes its latest offering as an EMC analyser with a big difference.

In addition to being a powerful conventional radiated and conducted emissions analyser (10kHz-1.1GHz), the ESA-2000 can resolve and display the common- and differential-mode components of conducted emissions as separate scans.

The benefits of this new and unique feature are that once the mode is known and quantified, selection of the optimum filter type and component selection becomes straightforward.

No longer is there the need to reduce noncompliant problems by trial-and-error techniques.

The use of the ESA-2000 can save considerable time and frustration and avoid having to overengineer the solution "to be on the safe side".

A full account of the new technique and an example of its use can be found on the Laplace website.

The ESA-2000 also includes several other innovative features specifically designed to make compliance testing quicker, more accurate and user friendly.

The analyser is controlled from a PC via the serial port and includes a custom designed Windows application package.

Operation has been automated where possible so that the user does not need to be an EMC expert to make measurements.

A comprehensive training course is included with all complete EMC systems that include this analyser.
