– Key Features
• Real-time average and peak power measurement with zero dead time for continuous pulse analysis
• Time-selectivity function in average mode to achieve full dynamic range across measurement conditions
• Fast acquisition at 50,000 readings/second supports rapid data collection and transient characterization
• Valid overpower range: -45 dBm to +26 dBm (sensors to 33 GHz, DUT max SWR < 1.2); -45 dBm to +20 dBm for other sensors (DUT SWR < 1.2)
• Internal zero and automatic calibration reduce measurement uncertainty without external reference requirements
• 1 MSa memory capacity enables extended waveform capture and statistical analysis
– Typical Applications
• Spectrum analyzer power measurement modules
• Signal generator output verification
• Pulse power characterization in radar and communications test
• High-speed transient power measurement
• Automated production test and validation
– Compatibility & Integration
The L2061XA integrates with Keysight BenchVue software (BV0007B included), enabling remote control, data logging, and measurement automation across networked test stations. LAN connectivity supports integration into distributed test architectures without requiring dedicated control interfaces.
