A Short Primer on RF / Microwave Power Sensors

Proper power measurement techniques are important for achieving accurate results. Mini-Circuits’ PWR-series of smart power sensors now furnishes the measurement professional with the ability to make accurate peak and average measurements of CW, modulated, and pulsed RF signals at a more cost-effective price point than generally available anywhere else in the industry. Whether it’s a high dynamic range solution or a high frequency solution to 40 GHz, Mini-Circuits offers a power sensor to suit most RF/microwave engineering needs and budgets.

Mini-Circuits’ lineup of entry-level power sensor products capable of CW and true RMS measurements presents an economical option for applications requiring the measurement of CW signals to 8 GHz and modulated or multitone signals to 6 GHz. Both CW and true RMS power sensors and can be found on our main smart power sensors page.
