Rohde and Schwarz NRP-Z11 Universal Power Sensor with 10 MHz to 8 GHz Frequency Range and 200 pW to 200 mW Power Measurement in Plug-In Form Factor
The Power Sensors R&S NRP-Z11, R&S NRP-Z21, R&S NRP-Z22, R&S NRP-Z23 and R&S NRP-Z24 fuse multiple-path architecture, multiple-diode technology and a simultaneously scanning multichannel measurement system into a unique high-performance concept. Multiple-path architecture means combining two or three diode detectors to obtain a large dynamic range for modulated signals. This is achieved by operating each detector exclusively in the square-law region, and only using the optimally driven detectors for the measurement. Multiple diodes comprise several zero-bias Schottky diodes connected in series and integrated on one chip. When used in an RF detector, they expand its square-law region, because the measurement voltage is split among several diodes - so that each one is driven less - while at the same time the detected voltages of the individual diodes are added.
