PM-2458, Praxsym T-Meter Broadband Wireless Power Meter for 2.4GHz, 5.3GHz, 5.8GHz Frequency Bands

Description

The heart of the Praxsym T-Meter wireless power meter is an RF assembly built around a proprietary bi-directional RF power sensor designed specifically to cover the 2.4 GHz, 5.3 GHz, and 5.8 GHz bands. The sensor consists of series connected couplers; one senses forward signal strength – the other senses reflected signal strength. Twin leveling-loop circuits keep a pair of detection diodes at fixed potentials, maintaining conduction in each diode’s square-law region. The design minimizes modulation error while maintaining a fast response time. Readings from both detection circuits are converted by a microcontroller to generate the display readings. Each frequency band has been independently calibrated at the factory over the -10 to 50 degrees C temperature range and the data stored in the microcontroller’s integrated EEPROM.
