Two Rohde & Schwarz presentations at key electronics event will help engineers to get the most out of their oscilloscopes

Wurth Electronics UK and Rohde & Schwarz are teaming up to provide the 2024 edition of Powering the World of Electronics – Power Supply & EMC Design and Optimisation on 6 November 2024. Rohde & Schwarz will demonstrate its latest test equipment, oscilloscope technology and power measurement techniques at an event targeted at design engineers tasked with selecting and optimising power converter topologies.

Powering the World of Electronics – Power Supply & EMC Design and Optimisation will be of interest to engineers who work with minimising the effect of electromagnetic interference (EMI) in their product designs. Organised by Wurth Electronics UK, the event will include presentations, practical demonstrations and simulations while offering experts in the field to network with like-minded specialists.  

Nick Le Bas, Product Manager and Application Engineer at Rohde & Schwarz, will deliver two key presentations. One will focus on how to verify control loop stability using an oscilloscope, and the second will cover how to use oscilloscopes to check voltage and current (V/I), looking in detail at the fundamental requirements for achieving accurate measurements.  

The first presentation will unravel the secrets to achieving rock-solid stability in control systems as he explores the power of precise measurements. The unparalleled ability of an oscilloscope to capture and analyse using the Bode plot technique will be explained, and delegates will learn how to optimise key parameters for crucial measurements in order to achieve a stable and robust control loop performance. 

The second presentation will explore the vital relationship between V and I measurements, demystifying the intricacies of oscilloscope operation and providing practical insights to help users get the most out of their readings. Veteran engineers and apprentices alike will benefit from this comprehensive walk-through of essential principles and concepts which will assist with taking their oscilloscope skills to the next level.

All attendees will be entered into a raffle to win a R&S®RTB2000 oscilloscope and a second prize of a set of the company’s field probes. Ideal for university laboratories, for troubleshooting embedded designs during development and for production and service departments, the RTB2000 series is known for high signal fidelity and a 10.1″ capacitive touchscreen, enabling users to see small signal details even in the presence of large signals. The oscilloscope features a 10-bit A/D converter that delivers a four-fold improvement compared to conventional 8-bit A/D converters.

Powering the World of Electronics will be held on 6 November 2024 at The National Conference Centre in Solihull, running from 8.00am to 4.30pm. Refreshments will be provided. For further details and to register attendance, click here.
