The capability, accuracy, quality, and reliability have made the 436A Digital Power Meter one of the most widely used digital power meters throughout the industry. Versatility is provided with a frequency range of 100kHz to 18GHz at -70 dBm (100 pW) to +35 dBm (3 W), (depending on the power sensor used, sold separately). Accuracies are as follows. Watt mode: 0.5% in ranges 1 through 4, 1% in range 5; dBm mode: (0.02 dB +0.001 dB/C) in ranges 1 through 4, (0.04 dB 0.001 dB/C) in range 5; dB (REL) mode: (0.02 dB 0.001 dB/C) in ranges 1 through 4, (0.04 dB 0.001 dB/C) in range 5. Response times (0 to 99% of reading): Range 1: <10 s, Range 2: <1 s, Ranges 3 through 5: <1 ms. Requires power sensor (sold separately).
