Tektronix PSM5000 Series
The PSM3000, PSM4000 and PSM5000 Series Power Meter/Sensor products deliver industry-leading performance, analysis features and test speeds at competitive price points. A broad range of continuous wave (CW) and pulse modulation measurements are available, depending on the model. Each meter includes Windows application software for controlling the meter, displaying readings, and recording data. The instrument communicates with the PC through a standard USB 2.0 interface. The combination of the meter/sensor and PC provides a complete solution, eliminating the need for a separate, dedicated meter mainframe.
PSM3000 Series power meters/sensors provide true average power measurements, providing accurate power measurements independent of signal modulation and bandwidth. The PSM4000 Series also delivers average power measurements, and adds pulse and peak power measurements for gathering basic data on pulsed RF and microwave signals. PSM5000 Series power meters/sensors provide the same measurements as the PSM4000, and also provides pulse profiling capability for signal viewing and characterization in pulsed RF and microwave systems.
The products are built for design and manufacturing test customers. Key performance and differentiated features of the PSM3000, PSM4000 and PSM5000 series models include:
