NRP18T.02

The NRP18T.02 from Rohde & Schwarz is a 18GHz thermal power sensor. This highly accurate power sensor is a self contained, fully characterized instrument. It can be operated with NRP2 base unit with a laptop/ PC via USB and with many Rohde & Schwarz instruments (eg. signal generators, signal and spectrum analyzers, network analyzers). It is especially used for complex measurement tasks. This power sensor features higher accuracy and tolerate any type of modulation. To improve measurement accuracy, the hardware of the R&S NRP18T thermal power sensor is designed to reduce measurement noise to a minimum and to make the sensor immune to thermal environmental effects. This sensor characteristics are particularly beneficial in reference applications and calibration labs.

• Measurement range from -35dBm to +20dBm (300nW to 100mW) and frequency range from DC to 18GHz
• 0.040dB to 0.082dB uncertainty for power measurements at +20°C to +25°C absolute
• 0.010dB uncertainty for power measurements at +20°C to +25°C relative
• N(m) connector, sensor status at a glance with status LED
• Excellent impedance matching, sophisticated connector design & internal calibration test
• Detachable cables for flexible operation, control and monitoring via USB
• Outstanding performance for reference applications
• Outstanding linearity of 0.007dB (0.16%) <lt/> 67GHz and 0.010dB (0.23%) <gt/> 67GHz
• Intelligent averaging function minimizes measurement time, versatile measurement functions
• Fully characterized power sensor minimizes measurement uncertainty
