The MA2400A/B Series Power Sensors consist of MA247XA Series Power Sensors, MA246XA/B Series Power Sensors, MA248XA Series Universal Power Sensors, MA242XA/B Series Thermal Power Sensors, and MA244XA Series High Accuracy Power Sensors. These units are broadband microwave measurement components. All models except the MA246XA/B Series Power Sensors, are used with the ML2430A Series Power Meters. The MA246XA/B Series Power Sensors are used only with the ML2400A Series Power Meter.
The Anritsu MA2472A is a Standard Diode Sensor designed for use with the ML2430, ML2480 and ML2490 series power meters. They are designed for high dynamic range, high accuracy CW and TDMA measurements. These power sensors have 90 dB dynamic range and linearity better than 1.8% making them the choice for precision measurements. The 4 µs rise time of these sensors is fast enough for power measurements on GSM and similar TDMA systems that use GMSK modulation.
Key Features |
10 MHz to 50 GHz range |
N, K, and V type RF connectors |
90 dB dynamic range provides stable power readings to –70 dBm |
MA244XA Series High Accuracy Power Sensors contain an additional matching circuit to improve return loss performance |
MA242XA/B Series Thermal Power Sensors provide measuring speeds to 4 ms rise and fall times in addition to exceptional return loss performance |
MA246XB power sensors have fast 1 millisecond rise and fall times needed for CDMA measurements |
MA248XA Universal sensors measure average power of modulated signals such as W-CDMA, multi-tone, etc. |
All MA2400A/B Series Power Sensors contain internal EEPROMs for storage of calibration data as a function of frequency, power, and temperature. This allows the power meter to interpolate and correct readings automatically |
