Leaders of Boonton Electronics in Parsippany, N.J., are releasing the company’s 4500B peak power analyzer for capturing, displaying, and analyzing radio-frequency (RF) power in time and statistical domains. The 4500B is for pulsed RF applications such as radar, TDMA and GSM, pseudorandom, or for noise-like signals such as CDMA and WLAN and modulated time slotted signals such as GSM-EDGE and TD-SCDMA. The unit’s 8.4-inch TFT color LCD display shows as many as two live RF channels, two live trigger channels, two stored memory channels and one live math channel simultaneously. Users can customize the display according to the select measurements or parametric settings. Key features include 100-ps timebase resolution, automatic peak-to-peak triggering, delay-by-time and delay-by-events triggering, text view of as many as 15 time and power measurements per channel, envelope, persistence and roll-mode displays as well as optional time-gated CCDF and PDF with log displays. The instrument is compatible with Boonton’s RF peak power sensors. For more information contact Boonton online at www.boonton.com.
