Product Overview

The Gigatronics 8541C Universal Power Meter combines accuracy, speed, range and measurement capabilities rarely available from any other power meter. Built-in features such as power sweep calibration and frequency calibration factors provide an unequaled degree of measurement accuracy.

The Gigatronics 8541C has the speed and range to meet the throughput demands of high-volume manufacturing. And the meter can measure the CW, peak and true average power of the complex modulated signals used in EW, radar and communication systems.

Features of the 8541C include:

• Frequency Range 100 kHz to 40 GHz (sensor dependent)
• Power Range: -70 to +47 dBm (sensor dependent)
• Choose from an extensive line of CW, Peak, Modulation and True RMS sensors
• Single Sensor Dynamic Range:
  
  • CW Power Sensors: 90 dB (-70 to +20 dBm)
  • Modulation Power Sensors: 87 dB CW, 60 to 80 dB Modulation Mode
  • Peak Power Sensors: 50 dB CW, 47 dB Peak
• Linearity 0.02 dB
• Automatically measure average power of TDMA, GSM, and CDMA signals
• Optional Time Gating to program a measurement's start time and duration
• Achieve 500 reading per second over GPIB
• Use the Fast Buffered Mode to capture up to 4000 readings per second
• Measure the instantaneous peak power level of a pulse modulated signal
