Rohde & Schwarz NRP33SN Diode Power Sensor

Overview

The Rohde & Schwarz NRP33SN is a 3-path diode power sensor that extends the NRP33 series with LAN capability for remote control over large distances. It provides fully characterized, self-contained measurements covering 10 MHz to 33 GHz with a power range of 100 pW to 200 mW. The sensor can be operated with the NRP2 base unit, via USB, LAN/USBTMC, or directly with many Rohde & Schwarz instruments including signal generators, spectrum analyzers, and network analyzers.
