Description
Rohde and Schwarz NRP-Z211 – Two Path Diode Power Sensor (10 MHz – 8 GHz)
- Frequency range: 10 MHz to 8 GHz
- Level range: -60 dBm to +20 dBm
- Connector type: N
- Please see below for information on connection accessories for use with a computer or instrument
The R&S NRP-Z211/-Z221 two-path diode power sensors combine all key characteristics relevant for their use in production. These USB sensors are cost-effective, fast and precise. The sensors support the same measurement functions as the R&S NRPxxS three-path diode power sensors and offer the best price/performance ratio in their class.
Mid-class sensor with tried and tested technology
The two-path diode power sensors use the tried and tested Rohde & Schwarz multipath technology. With two overlapping diode paths measured in parallel and a wide dynamic range of 80 dB, the power sensors feature high measurement accuracy and speed.
Connection to your computer or instrument
NRP-Z power sensors offer several options for connection to your computer or instrument.
- NRP-Z2 – Sensor extension cable
- In some cases the signal source is far away from the base unit. Therefore, four different sensor extension cables are available to get a total length of 3, 5 or 10 meters
- NRP-Z3 – USB adapter (active)
- Developed for applications requiring external triggering of the power sensor. It also offers a separate power supply.
- NRP-Z4 – USB adapter (passive)
- Provides all basic functions, as it handles the transmission of settings and measurement data as well as the power supply of the sensor via the USB bus
- NRP-Z5
- Can host up to 4 R&S NRPxxS(N), NRPxxT(N), NRPxxA(N) or NRP-Z sensors. A professional trigger solution allows simultaneous internal and external triggering of all connected sensors
Multiple ways to operate the R&S NRP power sensors
NRP series overview
Rohde & Schwarz offers several varieties of its NRP power sensor. The NRPxxS(N), NRPxxT(N), NRPxxTWG, NRPxxA(N) and NRP-Zxx power sensors are immediately ready for use. In contrast to conventional power sensors, no calibration is required prior to making measurements since the sensors are fully characterized over frequency, level and temperature and feature longterm stability. All calibration data is stored in the sensors, so they function as independent measuring instruments. Usually, no zeroing is required. Users can plug in a sensor and simply start measuring.
