Tektronix - PSM5320

USB Power Sensor/ Meter 50MHz-18GHz, Average/Peak/Pulse+ Profiling, Input Connector N-male

The PSM3000, PSM4000, and PSM5000 Series are compact power sensors/meters that deliver fast, accurate RF and microwave power measurements. A broad range of CW and pulse modulation measurements are available, depending on the series you choose. Each meter comes with Windows Power Meter application software for controlling the meter, displaying readings, and recording data. The combination of the sensor/meter and PC provides a complete solution, eliminating the need for a separate, dedicated meter mainframe.

Features:

Meters are calibrated over full temperature range – no zero or cal needed before making measurements, saving time and avoiding poor-quality data

Average power, duty cycle corrected pulse power, and measurement logging on all models

Included applications run under Microsoft Windows:

Power meter application

High-speed logging application

LabVIEW drivers and programming examples for most common Windows programming environments are available for automated system support

Max hold and relative measurement modes

Offset, frequency response, and 75 ohms min. loss pad correction

Flexible averaging modes for quick, stable measurements

TTL trigger input and output allow synchronization with external instruments

Pass/Fail limit mode

Compact size

The PSM4000 and PSM5000 series offer:

Pulse power, duty cycle, peak power, and crest factor measurements

Measure peak, average and minimum power on bursts with adjustable offset and duration

The PSM5000 Series includes a pulse profiling application for making measurements on repetitive, pulsed signals:

Builds and displays a trace of the pulse envelope

Full-trace and gated measurements including pulse, peak and average power, overshoot, crest factor, rise and fall time, pulse width, pulse repetition frequency, duty cycle

Statistical measurements on the trace data, such as complementary cumulative distribution function (CCDF), and probability density function (PDF)
