The Rohde & Schwarz ESVS10 is a specialized EMI test receiver engineered for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) compliance testing across the 20 MHz to 1 GHz frequency range. This instrument delivers the sensitivity and accuracy required to identify and quantify electromagnetic interference from electronic devices and systems in accordance with international EMC standards.
Technical Specifications
The ESVS10 measures field strength using test antennas, RFI voltage via LISNs, and RFI power with absorbing clamps. Level measurement capability spans −14 dBµV to +137 dBµV with frequency resolution of 100 Hz and input impedance of 50.0 Ω. Frequency accuracy reaches 3E-12, with maximum dynamic range of 70 dB. Noise figures are typically 7 dB with preamplifier (10 dB gain) and 12 dB without. Measurement error is less than typically 0.7 dB. The third-order intercept point measures 20 dBm without preamplifier, with maximum safety AC input of 30 dBm and maximum DC input of 50 V.
The receiver operates at dual bandwidths: 10 kHz and 120 kHz. Detection modes include Average (AV), Peak (PK), Quasi-Peak (QP), and PK/MHz. Demodulation supports A0, A3, and F3 modes. Maximum display average noise is −128 dBm and −111 dBm respectively.
