R&S®NPA Power Analyzer
All-in-one: the compact class that has it all
AT A GLANCE
The compact testers of the R&S®NPA family enable DC load, AC load and standby current characterization without PC software or remote infrastructure. In addition to a numerical and graphical display with 26 key parameters, the instrument delivers performance and compliance protocols in line with IEC 62301, EN 50564 and EN 61000-3-2.
All instruments of the R&S®NPA family can be remotely controlled via the Ethernet or USB interface. The virtual COM port and the test and measurement class (TMC) are supported for communications via USB. The remote control commands are completely based on the SCPI standard. Cost-free driver packages for LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI and IVI.net are also available. They allow the R&S®NPA instruments to be integrated quickly and easily into existing systems.
