Used TEKTRONIX P5100A / P5200A #9151675 for sale

TEKTRONIX P5100A and P5200A are both powerful electronic test capabilities. These high-performance PowerMeter instruments offer users both wide bandwidth and fast measurement speeds. The P5100A has a maximum bandwidth of 50 MHz, while the P5200A has a maximum bandwidth of 100 MHz. Both models feature high-speed auto-ranging input channels and calibration facilities. The P5100A provides a single power measurement range of 10dB over 10 mW. The P5200A provides three ranges of power measurement: 10 dB over 10 mW, 15 dB over 100 mW, and 20 dB over 1 W. Both instruments provide high-resolution, fast measurement times across a wide wavelength range. Both models use direct power reading techniques and can take high-resolution measurements of optical signals from 190 nm to 1600 nm. An auto-ranging feature also ensures that the power level of the signal is not exceeded. The P5100A includes three input channels for the measurement of modulated laser sources and electro-optical components. The P5200A includes six channels for measurement of modulated laser sources, electro-optical components, and unmodulated sources. These channels can be used to either measure a single waveform or correlate signals from multiple waveforms. In addition, both instruments support a variety of control modes, allowing users to define external triggering, as well as trigger conditions that are based on the waveform's characteristics. An integrated internal memory allows waveforms and associated measurement data to be stored and recalled. The instruments also boast extensive display and reporting capabilities. The large, high-resolution displays provide waveform detail, in addition to information about measurement data. Both instruments can also be connected to a host computer or printer, allowing waveforms and associated measurement data to be transferred. Measurements can be printed out or uploaded to a database. Overall, TEKTRONIX P5100A and P5200A offer a powerful and fast test capability for optical and laser sources. The available bandwidth, input channels, and measurement capabilities provide enhanced flexibility for users. In addition, the instruments provide excellent display and reporting features for analysis and documentation.
