Overview

The Spanawave (formerly Giga-tronics) 8035xA series can directly measure the instantaneous peak power level of a pulse modulated signal. Use the sample delay function to set the desired measurement point on the wafeform. An external scope can also be used to view the profile and see the exact measurement point on the pulse. This sensor group works with the 8540B, 8540C, 8650A, 8650B, and 58542 VXI series power meters.
