Ametek/Solartron 1260A

Frequency Response Analyzer 32 MHz to 10 µHz

Frequency Response Analyzers measure the output spectrum of a system relative to a stimulus, and are used to characterize the dynamics of the system under test. The technique measures the magnitude and phase relationship between output and input waveforms as a function of frequency. The input signals may come from any number of sensors, including acoustic (microphones/sonar), mechanical (accelerometers/displacement transducers), optical (photodetectors), and electrical (amplifiers). Applications that make use of this powerful technique include – electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), materials analysis, aerospace control system design, electronic amplifier design, power supply design, vibration analysis.
