dBm Volts Watts Conversion

When designing RF power circuits, it’s useful to know the voltage level for a given power level. This table provides a chart showing the relationship between power in dBm, watts and the relevant voltage expressed in volts, millivolts and microvolts (peak-to-peak for sinusoidal signals) in a 50-ohm system. It is applicable for both low and high-power applications.

MDIF Utility Optenni

Optenni Ltd.

The Optenni MDIF Utility generates an MDIF file from a collection of Touchstone files. The MDIF file can be used for example to represent the different states of a tunable capacitor or a multiport switch. Data about the maximum allowed voltage and current is also added to the file and used in the Optenni Lab matching circuit optimization software.
