ESIB combines the high sensitivity, large dynamic range and selectivity of a high-end EMI test receiver with the flexibility and speed of a top-class spectrum analyzer.

The ESIB EMI test receivers fully comply with the basic standard CISPR 16-1-1 and carry out measurements in conformance with all civil and military EMI standards such as CISPR, EN, VDE, ANSI, FCC, BS, ETS, VCCI, MIL-STD, VG, DEF-STAN, etc.

High performance:

* Frequency range 20 Hz to 7 GHz, 26.5 GHz or 40 GHz, depending on model
* Very high sensitivity (NF typ. 10 dB)
* Excellent large-signal immunity (1 dB comp.: +10 dBm)
* Low measurement uncertainty (< 1 dB up to 1 GHz)
* High measurement speed and result processing (min. meas. time 100 μs)
* Low inherent noise (<–3 dBµV)

The upper frequency limit of the R&S ESIB26 and R&S ESIB40 can be extended up to 110 GHz by means of external mixers (options R&S FSE-B21 and mixers R&S FS-Zxx required).

Applications:

The ESIB offers features and test routines for the various stages of product development as well as for the final EMC certification tests.

ESIB may be used by:

* EMC test houses and service providers
* Governmental organizations
* Safety standard authorities
* Military
* Large industrial development and EMC labs (e.g. automotive)

EMC performance features:

* Fast scanning in test receiver mode and sweeping in spectrum analyzer mode
* Compliant with CISPR 16-1-1
* Two RF inputs
Input 2 with additional pulse protection (20 Hz to 1 GHz)
* Integrated 20 dB preamplifier (selectable)
1 kHz to 7 GHz as standard; >7 GHz as option R&S ESIB-B2
* Preselection in receiver mode (fixed) and analyzer mode (selectable)
* Resolution bandwidths meeting MIL standards and CISPR 16 specifications
in analyzer mode, -3 dB RBWs and -6 dB RBWs selectable
* Parallel detectors
Peak, average, quasi-peak, CISPR average and RMS (max. four simultaneously)
* Automatic overload detection & autoranging
* Editors for user-definable transducer factors/sets and limit lines
incl. integrated transducer factor/limit line libraries
* Internal test routines for automated or interactive preview & final measurements
* Evaluation functions for prescan, data reduction (peak list) and final measurement
* Split screen display (mixed analyzer/receiver mode) for detailed signal analysis
* Convenient scan table editor
Up to ten subranges with individual parameter setting
* Automatic scan and display of traces in parallel (receiver mode)
Max. four traces with up to 80.000 samples each (250.000 samples with one trace)
