This unit
The Tektronix PSM5110 USB Power Sensor delivers accurate RF and microwave power measurements across 100 MHz to 8 GHz in a compact, PC-integrated platform. Connect via USB to measure average power, pulsed signals, and modulated waveforms without requiring a separate meter mainframe. The included Windows Power Meter application provides control, real-time display, and data logging - ideal for field engineers, technicians, and lab environments requiring portable, traceable measurements.
Technical Specifications
- Frequency Range: 100 MHz to 8 GHz
- Power Measurement Range: -60 dBm to +20 dBm
- Measurement Speed: Up to 2000 readings/second
- Measurement Uncertainty: As low as 2.6%
- Connector Type: 3.5 mm male
Key Features
- Factory calibration across full operating temperature eliminates zeroing or recalibration before use
- Measurement Modes: Average power, duty cycle corrected pulse power, and data logging
- Pulse Analysis: Envelope tracing with full-trace and gated measurements - pulse, peak, and average power, overshoot, crest factor, rise/fall time, pulse width, PRF, and duty cycle
- Statistical Analysis: CCDF and PDF computation on trace data
- Corrections: Offset, frequency response, and 75 Ω minimum loss pad compensation
- Flexible Averaging: Multiple modes for rapid measurement stabilization
- Synchronization: TTL trigger input/output for external instrument coordination
- Pass/Fail Testing: Limit mode for go/no-go validation
- Measurement Modes: Max Hold and Relative modes supported
- Software: Windows Power Meter application included; LabVIEW drivers and programming examples available for system integration
Typical Applications
- General-purpose RF and microwave average power characterization
- Repetitive pulsed signal analysis (radar, navigation)
- Peak and average power on modulated signals (GSM, CDMA, WCDMA, HSPA, WiMAX up to 10 MHz)
- Modulated pulsed communications signal measurement
- Source-level feedback control
- Power amplifier, switch, and RF component validation
- DTV, cellular, microwave radio link, and broadcast installation and maintenance
Compatibility & Integration USB connection to Windows PC eliminates external meter dependencies. LabVIEW driver support enables automated test sequences and custom data workflows.
