Product overview
The R&S®NRP-Z211 and R&S®NRP-Z221 are USB SMART two-path diode power sensors from the R&S Z family, built for cost-effective production-line measurement. They give 80 dB of dynamic range from −60 dBm to +20 dBm and connect over USB straight to a PC or to an R&S®NRP2 base unit. Rohde & Schwarz lists this product as discontinued and names the R&S®NRPxE family as its successor.
Key features
- Two-path diode architecture with automatic path switching, for 80 dB of dynamic range
- High measurement speed, suited to automated production test
- USB SMART sensor: connects directly to a PC, to an NRP2 base unit, or through an NRP-Z5 USB hub for several channels
- Built-in zeroing, internal / external / bus triggering, and burst, timeslot / gate average and trace measurement modes
- Measures continuous average, burst average, timeslot average and power versus time traces
Typical applications
- RF power measurement and automated test on the production line
- Alignment of base stations, mobile devices and transmitters
- Production verification of radar, satellite and avionics RF modules
- Power measurement straight from a PC over USB in the development laboratory
