Yokogawa AQ6370E-Yokogawa Electric Releases High Performance Spectrum Analyser
Yokogawa Electric Test & Measurement has announced the June 2023 release of the Yokogawa AQ6370E spectrum analyser. An upgrade to the popular Yokogawa AQ6370D, the new model is equipped with enhanced performance and usability features. Equally suitable for use in industry, universities and research institutes, this Yokogawa AQ6370E can be used to characterise a wide range of components, including lasers, optical transceivers and optical amplifiers for optical communications.
Based on technology and expertise developed in this field over more than 40 years, the Yokogawa Yokogawa AQ6370E Spectrum Analyser is designed to meet the growing demand for high-precision and easy-to-use test equipment in the research, development, and production of optical communications equipment and devices.
This is due in part to the growth in the use of cloud services, 5G communications, and other information and communication services that require high-capacity and high-speed optical communication networks. This trend is driving the development of next-generation optical devices and components that support high-capacity optical communication networks. Evaluating the characteristics and quality of these devices and components requires high-precision optical test instruments capable of analysing optical wavelength components and measuring wavelength characteristics.
Since its release in 2014, Yokogawa Electric's Yokogawa AQ6370D spectrum analyser has been widely used for R&D and production testing. The newly released AQ6370E offers several new functions and features to streamline development and production processes.
One of these new features is the HCDR (High Close Dynamic Range) mode, which allows users to measure individual longitudinal-mode lasers with high close dynamic range. The near dynamic range is a key performance criterion when developing lasers and optical devices.
There is also SMSR (Side Mode Suppression Ratio) mode, which reduces SMSR measurement time, and APP mode, which provides a device-under-test (DUT)-specific user interface that navigates the user from the configuration settings to the test result output, making it easy to use, even for customers unfamiliar with spectrum analysers.
Another new feature is the large LCD touch screen, which makes the daily operation of the analyser easier and more intuitive.
