General Information
Anritsu sensors are classified into three general types:
• MA2400xA Thermal Sensors
• MA247xx, MA244xx, MA249xx, and MA2411x Diode Sensors
• MA248xx Universal Sensors
Sensor Function
All the above sensors have one common function:
For a given signal frequency, they translate a sensed input power
into an output voltage. The Anritsu ML2400 Series power meters
interpret the sensor voltages with signal frequencies and output
correct power readings.
Power Sensing Elements
Both diode sensors and thermal sensors have a single power
sensing element. Therefore, they have only one voltage versus
power relationship. Universal sensors have three power sensing
elements, and they have three sets of voltage versus power
relationships.
Power Sensor Problems
The most common cause of power sensor problems is excess input
power. Applying power exceeding the labeled damage levels will
damage the sensing element(s) such that its voltage versus power
relationships are changed resulting in erroneous power readings.
