Detailed Introduction Technical Documents
Capable of Performing Measurements Down to DC
The U8480 Series is Keysight's first power sensor with measurement range down to DC (with Option 200), and is especially ideal for signal source/network analyzer calibration, power reference and EMC applications.
Built-in External Trigger Input
External triggering enables accurate triggering on small signals close to the signal noise floor. With the built-in trigger input connection on the U8480 Series power sensor, you can directly transmit the external trigger signal from your signal source or device under test to the USB sensor via the standard BNC to SMB cable.
Perform Measurements Directly via Computer
U8480 Series power sensors are supported by Keysight BenchVue software. With BenchVue software, you can easily control the power meter to log data and display measurement results in various formats without programming. Simply connect the sensor to a computer installed with BenchVue BV0007B Power Meter/Sensor Control and Analysis application, and you can perform average power measurement and analysis.
