EMScanner+ near-field EMC and EMI diagnostic system

Application and capabilities

EMScanner+ helps engineers locate and compare PCB emission sources across a 316 x 218 mm scan area. A fixed array of 1,218 magnetic-field probes gives fast coverage, with 7.5 mm physical spacing and a manufacturer-stated 3.75 mm effective resolution. The internal spectrum analyzer simplifies the measurement setup; a user PC runs EMViewer.

  • Locate emission hot spots, current paths, RF leakage and intermittent sources on operating PCBs.
  • Compare design revisions, filter changes and shielding modifications using repeatable scan settings.
  • Use spectral, spatial and combined scanning in EMViewer; retain peak-hold results and compare scans.
  • Support scripting, limit lines and reports for engineering investigations.

Measurement workflow

StepWhat the engineer does
1. Configure Choose the frequency band, analyzer settings and scan area; connect the DUT and measurement system.
2. Locate Run a spectral or spatial scan to identify frequencies and emission hot spots.
3. Investigate Refine the region, probe position or resolution while keeping the setup controlled.
4. Compare Repeat after a design change, compare results and retain maps and reports.

Software and configuration

EMViewer links scan position with RF measurements. Available modes include spectral sweeps, spatial hot-spot maps and combined scans. Confirm the supported software release, analyzer driver, license and support term when configuring the system.

EMViewer software information | Spectrum-analyzer compatibility

Scan times are examples tied to scan area, frequency span, RBW and resolution; the finest resolution is not a full-area real-time scan.

Dielectric-withstand values are test ratings, not a blanket safe operating-voltage rating for an energized DUT.

Dimensions, weight, Windows support and analyzer details follow the dedicated EMScanner+ datasheet; the manufacturer webpage also carries conflicting base-scanner values.

Array spacing, effective resolution, robotic scan spacing and robot repeatability describe different properties. Probe systems do not have one continuous guaranteed frequency range independent of the selected probe and analyzer. CR5 values are a project example; final specifications are defined by quotation. Near-field diagnostics support EMC development and do not replace a formal emissions compliance test.
