What are some of the most cost effective CISRP 16 compliant receivers/SAs available today?

Receivers are always easer to read QP and Avg. directly. If you can pass the CISPR limits with a peak reading (analyzer), you can most definitely pass the QP / Avg. limits with a receiver. For official testing a compliant (CISPR 16) device is always needed to measure with.

If your spectrum analyzer doesn't tune below 9 kHz, that shouldn't be a problem. In any case, the CE limits are such that you can easily afford to put a 20 dB pad on the LISN port and that should stop any overload effect. An EMI receiver provides several features different than an analyzer: increased sensitivity, front end filtering (preselection), and (typically) a variety of detection modes, although spectrum analyzers are catching up in this regards. If you need to make average measurements, this is more easily accomplished with an EMI receiver. ---------- >From: "Muriel Bittencourt de Liz" <[email protected]> >To: "EMC-PSTC List" <[email protected]> >Subject: Difference between SA and Receiver >Date: Thu, Nov 1, 2001, 8:15 AM > > > Hello Group, > > What are the differences that result using: > > 1.
