About the EMScanner Products
EMScanners product family provides board-level design teams with world-leading fast
nearfield magnetic data to help diagnose EMC design issues.
EMScanner product line consists of EMScanner, EMScannerR+ and EMProbe, these
instruments
capture and display visual images of spectral and spatial scan results in seconds. This
allows the design team to immediately analyze and compare design iterations.
PCB designers can scan any board to identify both constant and time-based emission
sources in the range of 150 kHz to 8 GHz.
EMScanner consists of a patented scanner and a compact adaptor, a customer-supplied
spectrum analyzer and a PC running EMViewer software. Free Keysight IO software
application must also be installed on the customer-supplied PC. The patented scanner
consists of an array of 1,218 H-field (magnetic) probes spaced every 7.5 mm which provides
an effective 3.75 mm resolution. The system operates from 150 kHz to 4 GHz and from 150
kHz to 8 GHz with upgradable and optional software license key.
EMScannerR+ is a self-contained high resolution near-field scanning device. Simply
connect the EMScannerR+ to the PC and to a spectrum analyzer, install the EMViewer
software on the PC and begin measurements. The system operates from 150 kHz to 8 GHz.
The EMScannerR+ provide 0.06 mm incremental measurement steps.
EMProbe is a repeatable high resolution EMC and EMI diagnostic with hand held hear field
probes. Different types of Robotic Arms can be used, based on the desired size and
resolution.

cable
It connects the adapter to the scanner to
enable control of the scanner’s switched
probes and to power the scanner.
5 USB Cable It connects the PC (laptop or desktop) to
the adaptor. The USB Cable provided with
the system has ferrites on both ends of the
cable
6 SMB-BNC
Trigger Cable
It connects the adaptor to the spectrum
analyser

Customer Provided Components
1. Spectrum Analyzer: It must include the necessary options to work with the
EMScanner (see Supported Spectrum Analyzers). It measures the radio frequency
(RF) signal received from the EMScanner, generated by the very-near-field
emissions of an adjacent activated PCB and it outputs the data to the PC.
Most Keysight`s and R&D`s models are supported.
2. PC (Laptop / Desktop): It must support a LAN 10/100 connection to the spectrum
analyzer and a USB connection (version 2.0 or higher) to the adaptor or two USB
connections, one for the spectrum analyzer and one for the adaptor. It runs the
EMViewer software and receives data, which it can display and manipulate
immediately or store for future data presentation.
