White Paper: Precision Power Analyzers
White Paper All the tools needed to study and optimize virtually any power project in a single instrument Introduction The design of any power conversion system requires the measurement of a large range of electrical parameters that could be made using a lab bench full of instruments. The precision power analyzer pulls all of these measurements into a single instrument replacing meters, oscilloscopes, chart recorders, harmonic analyzers and other devices. This paper will provide a basic overview of the functions and capabilities of high-performance power analyzers. Examples of these functions and how to apply [...]

Five Common Mistakes with Semiconductor Wafer Measurement
Semiconductor wafer measurement requires a high degree of precision. The right metrology equipment and inspection processes are important, but so is procedural consistency and attention to detail. If you’re not getting the results you want, it’s time to look beyond the measurements. With bare semiconductor wafers, users need to avoid these five common mistakes. Mistake #1 | Turning the Device Off Most users turn on metrology devices only when it’s time to use them. As soon as semiconductor wafer measurement is complete, the devices are turned off. This reduces electricity consumption but also introduces thermal instability that can cause [...]

Measuring Brake Rotor Thickness Variation with Capacitive Sensing
Brake rotor thickness variation, or disc thickness variation (DTV), causes uneven wear to brake rotors, disc-shaped automotive parts that are squeezed between brake pads to slow or stop a vehicle’s wheels. When a brake rotor has areas of different thickness, the amount of clamping force that’s applied across the rotor’s surface varies. These differences in clamping force lead to difference in torque, and the results may include brake shuddering, pulsating, or vibration. Even under normal driving conditions, brake rotors are subjected to extreme conditions that can cause performance-related issues. To ensure that brake rotors can perform [...]
White Paper: High Accuracy, High Voltage Measurement – April, 2019
Introduction One of the first principals learned as an engineering student is the “observer effect” which states that simply observing a situation or phenomenon necessarily changes that phenomenon. This is often the result of instruments that, by necessity, alter the state of what they measure in some manner. Accurate high-voltage measurement is a clear example of the validity of this theory. The accuracy of the resulting measurements is affected by three important elements: environmental factors, errors that are introduced by the measurement probe, and the intrinsic accuracy and performance of the measuring instrument. This article will address each of [...]
