Corrected System Performance
Note: This document provides technical specifications for the following calibration kits only: 85032F, 85092C,
85033E, 85093C and 85038A.
The specifications in this section apply for measurements made with the E8801A, E8802A, and E8803A
analyzer with the following conditions:
•
10 Hz IF bandwidth
•
No averaging applied to data
•
Environmental temperature of 25 °C ±5 °C, with
< 1 °C deviation from calibration temperature
•
Isolation calibration not omitted

a
The test port dynamic range is calculated as the difference between the test port rms noise floor and the source maximum output power.
The effective dynamic range must take measurement uncertainties and interfering signals into account.
b
May be limited to 100 dB at particular frequencies below 750 MHz due to spurious receiver residuals.
c
The receiver input dynamic range is calculated as the difference between the receiver rms noise floor and the source maximum output
power. The effective dynamic range must take measurement uncertainties and interfering signals into account. This set-up should only be
used when the receiver input will never exceed its damage level. When the analyzer is in segment sweep mode, frequency segments can be
defined with a higher power level when the extended dynamic range is required (i.e. the portion of the device's response with high insertion
loss), and reduced power when receiver damage may occur (i.e. the portion of the devices's response with low insertion loss).
d
May be limited to 115 dB at particular frequencies below 750 MHz due to spurious receiver residuals.
Note: Receiver Dynamic Range specifications are not included in this E8801/2/3A document.
