The Keysight U2062XA is a USB power sensor engineered for precise average and peak power measurements spanning 10 MHz to 18 GHz. Operating across a wide dynamic range of -70 dBm to +26 dBm, it delivers high sensitivity and broad power capability for demanding RF and microwave applications. The sensor employs a 4-path diode stack architecture with parallel data acquisition paths, enabling seamless range transitions while maintaining all diodes in their square law region for accurate average power measurement of broadband modulated signals.
