Product catalog summary

Overview: The Tektronix PSM3000, PSM4000, and PSM5000 Series are compact RF and microwave power sensors/meters designed for fast and accurate power measurements. They support a wide range of continuous wave (CW) and pulse modulation measurements, with models covering frequencies up to 26.5 GHz and dynamic ranges from -60 dBm to +20 dBm.

Key Features:

Models available with N and 3.5 mm connectors.
Dynamic range from -60 dBm to +20 dBm.
Uncertainty as low as 2.6%.
Reading rates up to 2000 readings/s.
Calibrated over full temperature range, eliminating the need for zeroing or calibration before measurements.
Includes applications for average power, duty cycle corrected pulse power, and measurement logging.
Compatible with Microsoft Windows, with LabVIEW drivers and programming examples available.
Compact size with no need for a separate meter mainframe.

Series Specifications:

PSM3000 Series: Offers true average power measurements, suitable for general-purpose RF and microwave applications.
PSM4000 Series: Adds pulse and peak power measurements, ideal for basic pulsed signal analysis.
PSM5000 Series: Includes pulse profiling capabilities for detailed signal characterization, supporting time domain analysis of repetitive pulsed signals.

Applications:

General-purpose RF and microwave average power measurements.
Characterization of repetitive pulsed signals, such as radar.
Peak and average power measurements on modulated signals like GSM, CDMA, and WiMAX.
Validation and characterization of power amplifiers and other RF components.
Service, maintenance, and installation of DTV, cellular, and radio broadcast transmitters.

Technical Specifications:

Frequency range varies by model, with options from 10 MHz to 26.5 GHz.

Power Range: +15 dBm to +20 dBm with 6.0% uncertainty, +5 dBm to +15 dBm with 4.0% uncertainty, and –40 dBm to +5 dBm with 2.0% uncertainty.
Noise Uncertainty: Varies with integration time and power level, e.g., 0.15% for +10 dBm to +20 dBm at 1 second integration from 100 MHz to 8 GHz.
Zero Offset Power: Calculated based on temperature and frequency range.
VSWR (Voltage Standing Wave Ratio): Varies with frequency, e.g., 1.18:1 from 100 MHz to 250 MHz.
Temperature Uncertainty: Varies with temperature range, e.g., 1.00% for 40 °C < T ≤ 50 °C.

General Specifications:

Maximum Average Power: +20 dBm (100 mW), with a damage level of +23 dBm (200 mW).
Measurement Rate: 2000/s with 100 settled measurements per second typical.
USB Interface: USB Version 2.0 Full speed (11 Mb/s).

Environmental Conditions:

Operating Temperature: 0 °C to +55 °C.
Non-operating Temperature: –25 °C to +85 °C.
Humidity: 15% to 95% RH at up to +30 °C, non-condensing.
Altitude: Operating up to 3,000 m, non-operating up to 15,000 m.

Physical Characteristics:

Dimensions: Vary by model, e.g., PSM5110 has a diameter of 48 mm and length of 62 mm.
Weight: Varies by model, e.g., PSM5110 weighs 109 g.
