EMScanner - 150 KHz - 8 GHz High Speed EMC/EMI Scanner

High-Frequency EMC Desktop Scanner

EMScanner is a cutting-edge, self-contained near-field scanning solution, engineered to seamlessly integrate with a Spectrum Analyser and a laptop or desktop PC running the powerful Y.I.C. Technologies EMViewer Software.

The EMScanner is designed to deliver highly accurate and repeatable results, enabling engineers to quickly and effectively identify the root causes of design failures.

With the EMScanner, you can streamline the troubleshooting process, reduce development time, and enhance the reliability of your designs, making it an essential tool for engineers working in high-frequency electronics, RF circuit design, and PCB diagnostics.

Ideal PCB projects for EMScanner are boards designed for high speed, high power, and/or high density/complexity. Any PCB that places a premium on board real estate also qualifies as an excellent candidate. The compact, flat scanner provides PCB design teams with an easy-to-use, cost-effective, and proven tabletop solution. Emission, immunity, filtering, EMI shielding, broadband noise and Common Mode testing are some of the applications that the EMScanner system addresses in mere seconds.

With EMScanner, design teams can personally test their designs without having to rely on another department, test engineer, or time-consuming off-site testing. After diagnosing even an intermittent problem, the engineer can implement a design change and retest, and the results provide concrete verification of the effectiveness (or not) of the design change.

EMScanner diagnostic capabilities allow design teams to reduce testing time by more than two orders of magnitude. Users have also documented fifty per cent reductions in design cycle times.

Capability

Spectral scan, spatial scan, peak-hold, continuous scanning, spectral and spatial comparison, scripting, limit lines, and report generation.

Spatial Scan Time

Continuous real-time or sub-second single scan for the entire scan area. Dependent on the spectrum analyser performance.

Spectral Scan Time

45 seconds for L 10 cm x W 10 cm (L 4” x W 4”) PCB with a 100 MHz span and 100 kHz RBW. Scanning area, span, and RBW are user-selectable within the spectrum analyser specifications.
