Course Description
Good measurements are essential for any test setup, whatever that scenario might be. Understanding basic requirements and terms are imperative to ensure the measurement accuracy and performance of a device under test. This full-day workshop will improve your understanding of basic test and measurement concepts, measurement techniques, and uses. We will also have a special presentation on Control Electronics for Quantum Computing, presented by Dr. Teakwan Yoon Application Scientist Quantum Technologies from Zurich Instruments. In addition, Rohde & Schwarz technical experts will discuss and demonstrate basic design engineering instruments, and techniques to solve design and measurement concerns for a broad range of applications.
