The LB5926A-LAN 1 MHz to 26.5 GHz True RMS Power Sensor

True RMS Average Power Sensor LB5926A-LAN

High-Precision RF Measurement from 1 MHz to 26.5 GHz

The LB5926A-LAN is a state-of-the-art True RMS Power Sensor designed for high-accuracy RF and microwave measurements across a wide frequency range. Leveraging advanced technology, this sensor delivers exceptional performance for both general-purpose and specialized applications. The sensor utilizes a HiSLIP LAN Ethernet interface.

Key Features:

• Wide Frequency Range: 1 MHz to 26.5 GHz
• High Accuracy: Utilizes a thermally stabilized, two-path RMS responding square law diode detection scheme
• Versatile Measurement: Accurate readings on any signal, regardless of modulation bandwidth
• Patented Thermal Stability: Eliminates drift and need for user zeroing or calibration before use
• Continuous Operation: No measurement interruptions due to continuous calibration, enhancing ATE system reliability
• Compatibility: Uses standard SCPI commands and works with competitive VISA IO libraries
• Advanced Triggering: Includes level-controlled internal triggering, external triggering, delays, and hold-off capabilities

Specialized Options:

• Analog Recorder Output (Option 001): Calibrated recorder output for leveling and control applications
• Data Security (Option MIL): Prevents writes to non-volatile memory for enhanced data protection
• Secure Erase (Option SEC): Allows erasure of all user-set non-volatile memory

Applications:

Ideal for average power measurements on various modulated signals, including:

• 802.11ac
• GSM
• CDMA 2000
• CDMA (IS-95)
• TDMA
• Multi-Tone
• OFDM
• CW
• QAM
• And more

The LB5926A’s innovative design eliminates the need to disconnect the source for zeroing, setting it apart from competitive sensors and streamlining measurement processes.
