Variety of Instruments are being used in education, industry and research in the field of analog, digital,

instrumentation, control system, biomedical and RF domain,

Requirement of these instruments varies and depends on their application areas.

Some application like electronic, electrical, automation, etc. require standard waveforms, arbitrary waveforms,

variable digital pattern and protocol generation. Analog signal combination and multiple digital signals are also

required for some applications like power electronics, embedded, DSP and VLSI.

To test run time analog and digital communication systems, modulated signals are required in some applications.

Similarly if we talk about analog and digital signal analysis then time domain analysis, frequency domain analysis,

phase analysis, jitter analysis, logic analysis and protocol analysis are required in various applications.

Frequency measurement of clock pulse and data recording with time are also required in some applications to

record data between two acquisitions with minimum, average and maximum level provision.

Scientech DesignLab3 is an ideal and compact USB powered high speed multi utility solution used in various

applications. Along with analog, digital, protocols generation and analysis this USB based platform has capabilities

to store, edit, personalize color of signal and screen, edit signal names, markers to analyze signal, print and many

more features in its interactive and user friendly software.

Communication Signal Analysis in the Time and Frequency Domain

From a physical point of view signals are oscillations or waves. They are imprinted

with certain information by changing according to a certain pattern. So,

communication signals like analog or digital information, carrier, un-modulated or

modulated signals etc. are very important signals to analyze in time and frequency

domain.

Jitter Analysis in Time Domain

With increasing data rates, jitter analysis of reference clock signals becomes more

and more important. In the high range, even small jitter has significant influence on

system performance. For example, the stability of reference clocks for components

of high-speed serial links has a strong influence on the bit error ratio. A detailed

characterization of the jitter of the reference clock is necessary to improve the

reliability with increasing data rates.

Phase and Frequency Analysis of a Signal

Any periodically oscillating sinusoidal wave (or simple MR signal) has three

fundamental properties: amplitude, frequency, and phase. These properties are

explicitly apparent in the mathematical formulation for a sine wave.

S(t) = A sin(ù t - ? )o

where S(t) is the signal as a function of time, A is the amplitude, ù is the angular o

frequency, and ? is the instantaneous phase. By adjusting these factors, the

appearance of the sine wave can be varied. Instantaneous phase (? ) represents an

angular shift between two sine waves and is measured in radians (or degrees). A sine

wave and a cosine wave are 90° (ð/2 radians) out of phase with each other. By using

DesignLab3 phase and frequency analysis mode we can directly see the phase and

frequency of a given signal.

Arbitrary Signal Generation

Arbitrary waveform generator is a form of function or signal generator that is able to

produce an arbitrary waveform defined by a set of values, i.e. "waypoints" entered to

set the value of the waveform at different times. As a result an arbitrary waveform

generator is able to produce virtually any wave shape that is required. User can create

the same signal in the lab which he / she is going to face in the field.

Multiple provision and features are provided in Scientech Designlab3 interactive

software to generate variety of Arbitrary waveforms. Generating a modulated signal with the Function Generator

Data Recorder

Data Recorder/Data Logger

One of the primary benefits of using data loggers is the ability to automatically collect

data on a hour, weekly, monthly and yearly basis. Upon activation, data loggers are

typically deployed and left unattended to measure and record information for the

duration of the monitoring period. This allows for a comprehensive, accurate picture

of the environmental conditions or machine performance being monitored, such as

heart rate, air temperature and relative humidity.

Sweep Signal Generation

A sweep frequency generator is a type of signal generator that is used to generate a

sinusoidal output. Sweep-frequency generators are primarily used for measuring the

responses of amplifiers, filters, and electrical components over various frequency

bands. It is really a hectic task to know the performance of measurement of

bandwidth over a wide frequency range with a manually tuned oscillator. By using a

sweep-frequency generator, a sinusoidal signal that is automatically swept between

two chosen frequencies can be applied to the circuit under test and its response

against frequency can be displayed on an oscilloscope or spectrum analyzer. Thus the

measurement time and effort is considerably reduced.Sweep function
