New Microwave Counters Feature Burst Capabilities, Coverage To 60 GHz
Stockholm, Sweden -- Pendulum Instruments announces the CNT-90XL, a family of microwave frequency counter/analyzers with integrated power meters, covering up to 60 GHz of frequency range. The CNT-90XL is a CW (continuous wave) counter with burst measurement capabilities.
The new CNT-90XL microwave counter/analyzers set boasts measurement speed for power and frequency up to 250,000 frequency samples/s. The graphical display shows frequency changes over time directly on-screen, for analysis of FM or AM, power or frequency switching, VCO settling and post tuning drift, etc. Built-in statistical processing presents numerical stability data and also frequency distribution histograms on screen for analysis of frequency or power stability or modulation.
CNT-90XL measures frequency and power and comes in four models covering frequencies up to 27, 40, 46 and 60 GHz. It is intended for several applications, such as:
- Microwave link carrier calibration
- Satellite communication equipment testing
- Radar system testing
- YIG and VCO testing
- RF and microwave instrumentation calibration
- RF components and modules testing
Product features and benefits in brief:
- Microwave counters with integrated power and burst measurements
- Fast high-resolution measurements, with manual or very short auto acquisition time
- High sensitivity (-33 dBm)
- Statistical processing (250,000 measurements/s) and graphical histogram, trend, and modulation display
