“Adding keycodes or further options to your instrument can be expensive
and time consuming. Now, our customers can get solution packages with
fully loaded instruments from the start for long-term viability,” said
Bob Bluhm, Vice President of Value Instruments at Rohde & Schwarz.
We want to make it easy and affordable for our customers to best
prepare for the future now before their design requirements change. Our
all-inclusive promotion does just that with all options included at
purchase, one part number for easy ordering and unrivaled prices on some
of the most popular instruments in our portfolio.”

From May 20, 2019, to December 31, 2019, the Rohde & Schwarz “This
Changes Everything” package promotion offers customers a wide selection
of the company’s entry-level instrument solutions fully equipped at an
attractive price. Customers can choose from Rohde & Schwarz
oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, power supplies and power analyzers,
and get all the bandwidth, channels, inputs, memory interfaces and
signal generation up front. Customers who might need to budget for
future upgrades based on design needs, can maximize their investment up
front, making the purchasing process easier.

Design engineers can build up their bench and maximize their bench’s
performance for every day applications like EMI debug, power integrity,
battery testing, channel power and low speed serial with the instruments
available through the promotion: It includes five oscilloscopes,
including the R&S RTB2000, the R&S RTM3000, the R&S RTA4000; two
spectrum analyzers, including the R&S FPC1500; three power supplies,
including the R&S HMP4040, the R&S NGE100B, the R&S NGL200; and
one power analyzer, the R&S HMC8015.

function as an RF signal generator, and feature a tracking generator and
independent continuous wave (CW) signal generator. The spectrum analyzer
also includes a one-port vector network analyzer with Smith chart
display, a signal generator, internal voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR)
bridge, independent signal source and resolution bandwidth settings down
to 1 Hz. The R&S FPC1500 comes with a 10.1-inch Wide XGA (WXGA) display
(1366 x 768 pixel), is Wi-Fi-enabled and offers remote control
capability. It is compatible with iOS, Android and PCs and features low
noise floor and high maximum input power.

Select from the following options:

  • R&S®FPC1000,
