1.2 Applications

Since the FRA5087 Frequency Response Analyzer has such features as highly isolated

input/output terminals, wide dynamic measurement range and high measurement accuracy, it can

be used for various applications as described below. It can also be used to easily form an

automatic measurement system combined with an on-line computer due to its standard availability

or the GPIB capability.

 Servo-system Servo-loop characteristics measurement for DVD players,

VTRs, etc.

 Electronic circuits Frequency characteristics measurement for filters, amplifiers,

etc.

 Acoustic system Frequency characteristics measurement for speakers,

microphones, etc.

 Vibration/oscillation analysis

Resonance characteristics measurement

 Electrochemical area Studies on metal corrosion, battery performance

measurement, etc.

(electrochemical impedance measurement)
