- Step sizes down to 0.1 mm to pinpoint emission sources in densely packed designs
- 4D scanning on the SCN-524, SCN-534 and SCN-564: 3D movement plus probe rotation at 1° resolution, finding and storing the worst case angle at every measuring position
- Z axis movement lets the probe follow the contours of a populated board at constant height, measuring closely around tall components such as heatsinks and electrolytic capacitors
- Scan cables, connectors, racked PCBs and all sides of a shielding enclosure, not just flat boards
- Scanning up to 10 GHz with Pendulum probe kits; 3 GHz or 6 GHz kits included as standard
- Detectus Scanning Software (DSS) with 2D and 3D colour field maps and printable reports
- Exactly repeatable scans, with result subtraction to isolate the effect of a layout or component change
- MultiScan: field plots at any frequency within the measured wideband span from a single scan
- STL 3D surface model import with 3-point alignment, for measuring at a fixed distance over the DUT
- Driver library covering 100+ spectrum analyser models, so you can use the analyser you already own and keep using the scanner when you upgrade
- Suitable for R&D pre-compliance work and production QC comparison against a reference sample
- Optional laser distance meter for fully automatic 3D modelling of the DUT
- Optional immunity software for locating susceptible areas, including FM, AM and pulse modulated signals
- Optional shielding tent and I/O panel
- 2 year warranty, extendable to 3 years on registration
- SCN series scanner available to evaluate from the NTD demo pool
