Rohde & Schwarz significantly increases functionality of R&S ELEKTRA EMC test software

The new R&S ELEKTRA EMC test software fully automates electromagnetic interference (EMI) tests. It also covers electromagnetic susceptibility (EMS) to address both product development and certification in line with international standards. Making the most of today’s powerful EMC testing instruments, users can now boost testing efficiency in EMC labs.

Munich, October 24, 2018 — EMC market leader Rohde & Schwarz introduces additional options for the existing R&S ELEKTRA EMC test software family to cover even more applications.

Thanks to the extensive automated execution of EMI tests, R&S ELEKTRA helps lab operators and EMC engineers who work in a wide variety of industries or for test houses and regulatory authorities save time and effort in the development and certification of commercial, automotive and A&D products.

With software options for conducted and radiated EMS testing in line with commercial standards, R&S ELEKTRA now addresses engineers who test the immunity of electronic products to RF interference.

The collection of predefined libraries for common EMC standards and automatic detection of connected instruments enable users to get started testing quickly.

The software’s sleek, modern graphic user interface (GUI) is optimized for high-resolution screens and touch operation on handheld devices. It provides instant access to important functions without having to navigate through several windows. A dashboard with favorite items, keyword search, tagging and filtering of key elements ensures that users maintain an overview of their current work. Parallel test execution and preparation of test plans with the new EUT test plan editor boost efficiency. Test plans and results reporting focus on the EUT as the core part of testing and speed up testing.

EMC test leadership
As the industry-leading supplier of EMC T&M equipment and with a leading market share of the EMC test software market, Rohde & Schwarz is cooperating closely with CISPR committees and contributing to EMC standardization updates. Integrating test software into EMC systems optimizes the test experience and delivers time and cost benefits.

The R&S ELEKTRA EMC test software is now available from Rohde & Schwarz. The R&S EMC32 software will continue to be offered and supported by Rohde & Schwarz.

The R&S ELEKTRA EMC test software will be officially introduced at the China International Conference & Exhibition on Electromagnetic Compatibility in Shanghai, which runs from October 24 to 26, 2018.

Want early design analysis without simulation?

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Traditional verification methods are failing today's complex IC designs, which require a proactive, early-stage analysis approach. A shift-left methodology addresses IP block integration challenges and the limitations of traditional simulation and ERC tools. Insight Analyzer detects hard-to-find leakage issues across power domains, enabling early analysis without full simulation. Identify inefficiencies earlier to reduce rework, improve reliability, and enhance power performance.
