SWR Power meter with protection for Solid State PA Version II
Old article below this one
Some people who built the power meter came with some good ideas and these were used for the Version II of the SWR Power meter. Also some hardware changes are involved.
New features:
- autoranging
- adapted for VHF – UHF use / better matching up to 500MHz
- wideband input
- storage of calibration values in EEPROM
- I2C display less wiring
- uses only two buttons to operate less wiring
- Uses an arduino nano, easy programming
- adaptable to most detectors as AD8313 etc
- mW meter function that makes it possible to calibrate your home made coupler and do other measurements.
- prepared for remote operation RS485 for remote operation
Operation of the SWR / Watt-meter
Operation is simple! It has only two push buttons. Normally a red one (RESET) and a different colour, lets assume black.
On start-up it should present the dual bar mode, one for forward, one for reflected.
By pressing the mode button for halve a second you enter the Forward mode
Let’ s describe what we see:
First line: showing forward power and temperature
Second line: shows reflected power and the calculated SWR
Third line: shows the watt-meter is in “FWD” mode and the full scale power of the bar graph is 20W
Fourth line: the bar graph
By pushing the the black button for halve a second it will go to the REF mode. It shows “REF” on the third line. The signal source is connected to the REF port. As there is no forward power the SWR will state “LOW” Note that the bar graph is showing the reflected power. It will be auto ranging on the reflected power.
Another push on the button will enter the Temp mode. The bar graph will show the temperature from 0-100 degrees. No auto ranging! This is to see the temperature behaviour of a device (solid state amp).
Again push the “mode’ button will enter the mW meter function. It will display bar graphs on the second and fourth line of the display from 0 to 100mW. First and third line show the power in dBm and mW. Because the AD8307 is frequency compensated (Following an article HERE) it can be used as a mW meter in the range up to 500 MHz.
In the software you can enable the alarm function and the limits for the alarm settings. If enabled it will show the alarms for SWR and temperature. It will stop measuring and show the following display:
The alarm outputs of the board go high and these can be connected to the FET-switch and the Arduine sequencer. This will disable the amplifier. See the page describing this HERE.
Same goes for the SWR alarm.
Generally the display should look something like this:
There is another mode available. The calibration mode. This calibrates the unit to a known signal source (-20dBm) Some displays below:
To see the setting you entered in the software, you have to press the mode button for more than 2 seconds. It will display all the settings in the software. Coupler values, Attenuator values, number of mV per dB (normally 25mV for the AD8307) and the calibrated value. Very handy to check.
A complete build unit should look like this:
Power Handling
Power handling is determined by the coupler, the (external) attenuator, the on board attenuator. Make sure the input on the AD8307 never exceeds 10mW (10dBm) better stay in the 0 dBm area / 0 mW
