Virtual Front Panel (VFP 4540) Software is a freeware that fully controls Boonton’s 4540 RF Power Analyzer remotely via TCP/IP. It is ideally suited for RF Power monitoring. The actual display of the 4540 power meter is shown as part of the virtual front panel. High speed data exchange provides a virtually real-time update rate.

Boonton Electronics announced today that it has been awarded an increase of $1.5M to its contract with the Department of the United States Navy. The total contract is for approximately $3.0M and a considerable portion of this contract will be fulfilled over the next twelve months.

Boonton has launched "Amplifier Test Bench", a new software package that simplifies test and certification of RF Amplifiers. Amplifier Test Bench supports analysis of pulsed and linear amplifiers; furthermore it measures gain over frequency and gain over input power.

Wireless Telecom Group (NYSE: WTT) has been awarded a 5 year supply agreement by Warner Robins Air Force Base for Boonton 4542 high performance RF power analyzers. These RF power analyzers are used to service and maintain Radar and control systems for the Global Hawk unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV).

Pulsed signals used for radar, remote sensing and tracking, MRI medical imaging, and certain wireless communication applications such as WiMax & LTE have become increasingly complex to measure.

Deep-level transient spectroscopy (DLTS) is an experimental tool for studying electrically active defects in semiconductors.

Boonton Electronics has been awarded a contract with the Department of the United States Navy to supply Boonton’s 4500B RF Peak Power Meter in support of a Naval Sea Systems Command project.  The total value of the contract is approximately $1.5M and a considerable portion of the order is expected to be realized over the next two years.

Before modern peak power meters were available, a system that included a crystal/diode detector, oscilloscope, average power meter, pulse generator and assorted couplers was assembled to capture pulse waveforms from high power amplifiers used for RADAR signals.

The 4240 series is offered as one channel (4241) or two channel (4242) instrument. Both meters come with an integrated calibrator that provides an ultra-stable, 50-MHz reference signal, and deliver a calibration power range from -60dBm to +20dBm. A built-in calibrator allows sensor calibrations right before the measurement providing highest measurement accuracy.

This webinar is designed for people who want to learn about Power measurements with RF power meters.

Boonton proudly announces the extension of the fast 593xx Peak Power Sensor family, the 59340. This RF Peak Power Sensor is optimized for Boonton’s high end Peak Power Meter series 4500B and 4540. It provides dynamic input power ranges from -24 dBm to +20 dBm in Peak mode and -34 dBm to +20 dBm in CW mode.

The PIM 31 analyzer provides two signals, up to 25W each. IEC62037 standard for PIM testing recommends 2x20W but the additional power provided by PIM31 allows for compensating of RF-path attenuation; particularly important when measuring PIM levels of complete systems, like base stations. PIM 31’s accuracy and high sensitivity of -175 dBc @ 2x43 dBm allow for applications ranging form performance evaluation of RF infrastructure to RF component testing.
