The N5532A is intended to be used with the N5530S and N5531S Measuring Receiver System. It is essentially a power sensor with the power splitter at the input. In use, the sensor module's two output cables are connected to an EPM (or EPM-P) Power Meter and the Performance Spectrum Analyzer (PSA) RF Input. The sensor module is calibrated such that the power meter indicates the power supplied by the source under test.
The N5532A Sensor Module is offered in four frequency
configurations:
- Option 504 covers 100 kHz to 4.2 GHz
- Option 518 covers 10 MHz to 18 GHz
- Option 526 covers 30 MHz to 26.5 GHz
- Option 550 covers 30 MHz to 50 GHz
