Just like Rohde and Schwarz which is a world leader in Communications Test Equipment, There was another from Germany called Wandel and Goltermann which made specialized RF Test Instruments. A short history is Wandel and Goltermann became Wavetek Wandel Goltermann (WWG) and then Acterna, Now it is a part of JDSU Communications Test & Measurement.

Let us assume Physics, Chemistry and Biology as Verticals on a Horizontal plane called Science. A part of Physics developed into Magnetism and Electricity, which further evolved into Electrical Engineering a Technology. When a branch of Science is applied to develop, evolve and maintain Life on this Planet it becomes a Technology. Electrical Engineering as a Technology has evolved and branched out into many specialized domains. With the coming of Semiconductors and the Advancements of Material Technologies, Electronics Engineering emerged as a foundation or a Horizontal for many new Verticals. One such Vertical is Instrumentation, here you know Industrial Process [Read More ....]

This was a Student Project of mine, it is a very basic instruments that could do most of the tasks on a test bench. The cabinet used, was available as a part of a Hi-Fi DIY System, The Range and Mode switches were Modular Stackable Interlocked MultiPole Switches. The rest of the Interface were wirewound pots, jacks, sockets and plugs. The front panel was Engraved Acrylic, the panel was the toughest issue we tackled. I wanted it to look well engineered, at least on the outside. It was a total analog instrument except for the digital indication of ICL7107. Thanks [Read More ....]
