1. Definitions
All specifications and characteristics apply under the following conditions, unless otherwise stated:
Warm-Up Time After 90 minutes of warm-up time, where the instrument is left in the ON state.
Temperature Range Over the 25 °C ± 5 °C temperature range.
Error-Corrected Specifications For error-corrected specifications, over 23 °C ± 3 °C, with < 1 °C variation from calibration temperature.
For error-corrected specifications are warranted and include guard bands, unless otherwise stated.
Typical Performance "Typical" specifications describe expected, but not warranted, performance based on sample testing.
Typical performance indicates the measured performance of an average unit and do not guarantee the
performance of any individual product. "Typical" specifications do not account for measurement uncertainty
and are shown in parenthesis, such as (-102 dB), or noted as Typical.
User Cables Specifications do not include effects of any user cables attached to the instrument.
Discrete Spurious Responses Specifications may exclude discrete spurious responses.
Internal Reference Signal All specifications apply with internal 10 MHz Crystal Oscillator Reference Signal.
Characteristic Performance Characteristic performance indicates a performance designed-in and verified during the design phase. It
does include guard-bands and is not covered by the product warranty.
Below 300 kHz All uncertainties below 300 kHz are typical.
Recommended Calibration Cycle 12 months
Interpolation Mode All specifications are with Interpolation Mode Off.
Specifications Subject to Change All specifications subject to change without notice. For the most current data sheet, please visit the Anritsu
