What is dBµV to dBpW Calculator?
dBµV to dBpW Calculator is used to convert any voltage level in dBµV to the power value in dBpW, using the voltage value (in dBµV) and system impedance Z (in ohms) entered by the user. The calculator uses the following formula:
Where,
dBpW (decibel-picowatts)- decibel unit for measuring power with reference to one picowatt (1 pW). This unit is used in disturbance power measurement.
dBµV (decibel-microvolt)- decibel unit for measuring voltage with reference to one microvolt (1 µV).
Z- System impedance in ohms.
The dBµV unit is used in EMC-conducted emission testing for measuring conducted emission voltage levels, as well as used in RF applications, particularly in the cable television industry, to measure RF signal strength in coaxial cable systems.
The dBµV to dBpW calculator helps to calculate the power value in dBpW from the voltage in dBµV by inputting the voltage level (in dBµV) and system impedance Z (in ohms). It quickly and accurately calculates dBpW from dBµV and impedance (Z). This calculator is a useful tool when you deal with EMC measurements, where precise measurement and analysis of signal strength are crucial.
