USB Power Meters Perform Measurements To 20 GHz

June 17, 2010

THE LB679A AND LB680A Universal Serial Bus (USB) microwave power meters measure average, pulse, and peak envelope power over a 60-dB measurement range from 50 MHz to 20 GHz. The LB680A provides pulseenvelope profiling measurement capability for repetitive signals. It also offers an optional wideband, real-time video detector output signal (option 0W2) for measuring one-shot signals and timing events. Both models include the patent-pending PowerSensor+ technology, which offers NO ZERO-NO CAL measurement stability from 0 to +50C.
