Mini-Circuits SmartPower True RMS Power Sensor

Mini-Circuits SmartPower Sensor can turn a PC into a true root mean square (RMS) power meter for continuous waveform (CW), modulated, and multi-tone signals. The cost-effective, compact sensor head has a 55dB input dynamic range for RF power measurement as low as -45 dBm over 50MHz to 6000MHz. The sensor features a USB HID interface, is plug-and-play compatible, and features a GUI application for Windows. A full application programming interface (API) with programming instructions for Windows and Linux systems (32-bit and 64-bit) is included. Mini-Circuits SmartPower Sensor includes a 6.6-foot "Y" data cable (USB and RJ45).
