Pulse Power Sensor: LB479A

July 31, 2017

Compact, USB, RF pulse profiling sensor. Variety of connectors are available. All sensors are calibrated in accordance with ANSI Z540 and ISO 17025, and are first tier NIST traceable. Each sensor includes a cal certificate and data.

 

Features

  • Wide 80 dB dynamic range in pulse & pulse profiling mode along with sensitivity of -60 dBm. 
  • In addition to pulse measurements, the sensor can make 2,000 settled average measurements per second, continuously. Ideal for source calibration, antenna testing and other applications requiring fast continuous measurements.  
  • Patented active thermal stabilization insures no drift or interruption during automated or manual measurements. The sensor is ideal for ATE applications.
  • Stable over its entire operating temperature range of 0°C to +55°C. The optional LB957A heated mounting bracket extends the lower temperature to -55°C.
  • The sensor makes triggered and un-triggered statistical pulse measurements such as peak power, pulse power and duty cycle. 
  • Multi-path design for excellent dynamic range.
  • Includes a flexible software power meter and data logger. The software package includes a test harness for ATE testing.
  • 3 Year warranty.
  • Standard 10 MHz video bandwidth in statistical pulse mode.
  • Optional triggering capability.
  • Optional analog recorder output is calibrated and scalable.Vendor-View-Logo A1
