Mobile phones, PCs, Game machines, Home electronics, etc., are a key part of all our lives but sometimes their correct operation
is impaired by unwanted interference or “Noise” from other nearby machines; Noise evaluation to prevent mis-operation is a
key measurement. However, capturing all noise from every source such as electric motors and other environmental factors is
extremely difcult in terms of costs, labor and time. In addition, it is hard to generate stable noise for test capture.
The MS269xA solves these problems at a stroke by capturing the noise and then using the built-in vector signal generator to
replay it to accurately simulate the actual noise environment in the test laboratory.

When capturing noise, sometimes it is not possible to capture very small level uctuations with a resolution of 20 ns
(Sampling rate: 50 MHz), depending on the noise components. In this case, using smaller resolution of 5 ns (Sampling rate:
200 MHz) can capture signals closer to the true noise.
It is possible to recreate mis-operation phenomena by capturing noise generated from actual equipment such as electrical
motors at a resolution of 5 ns and reproducing it with the vector signal generator.

Replay Captured Noise from Vector Signal Generator
Vector Signal Generator generates waveform pattern with built-in PC based
on data captured by Signal Analyzer

High Resolution
Installing the Opt.077/078 Analysis Bandwidth Extension supports noise capture at sampling rates up to 200 MHz with 5 ns resolution.
Isolating Noise
After capturing the signal for the maximum time, data for just the required part with the noise can be saved to disk, greatly
reducing the le size and saving disk space. Additionally, processing speed is increased when generating the vector signal
generator noise waveform pattern with the PC.
All-in-one
Conventionally, a pre-amp, signal analyzer, and PC (for generating waveform pattern) are required to capture and replay
noise. The all-in-one MS269xA has all these functions built-in to eliminate complex setup work and improve efciency.
