The PMX40 from Maury Microwave is an RF Power Meter that operates from 4 kHz to 40 GHz. Its intuitive, multi-touch display enables fast configuration of up to four USB sensors as well as easy access to measurement and analysis tools, providing a standalone solution for capturing, displaying, and analyzing peak and average RF power in both the time and statistical domains. The meter also incorporates a test source to verify sensor operation.
The power meter has a video bandwidth of 195 MHz and a rise time 3 ns. It can perform up to 100,000 power measurements per second with a time resolution of 100 ps. This instrument comes with an automated pulse measurement feature and enables packet power measurements to be performed independently on multiple synchronous or asynchronous transmit chains with a common time base shared among sensors.
This device is suitable for Wi-Fi and wireless communication signal analysis, including the troubleshooting of Secondary Surveillance Radar (SSR).
The PMX40 utilizes up to four Maury Microwave RTP and CPS families of USB RF power sensors for independent or synchronized multi-channel measurements of CW, modulated, and pulsed signals. The power meter also includes a variety of trigger capabilities and communication interfaces to enable a wide range of measurements that address the most challenging test requirements, as well as a front panel test source for fast verification of sensor operation. This Benchtop device is an ideal solution for semiconductor, military, aerospace, medical, and communications industries.
