Accuracy

Instrumentation

Absolute:

±0.02 dB (Log) or ±0.5%

(linear). Please add the corresponding
power sensor linearity percentage
from Tables 7 and 10 (for the E-series
sensors) and Table 15 (for the 8480
series sensors).

Relative

: ±0.04 dB (Log) or ±1.0%

(linear). Please add the corresponding
power sensor linearity percentage
from Table 16 (for the 8480 series sen-
sors).

Zero Set (digital settability of
zero):

sensor dependent (refer to

Table 1). For E-series sensors, this
specification applies to a ZERO per-
formed when the sensor input is not
connected to the POWER REF.

Power Reference

Power Output:

1.00 mW (0.0 dBm).

Factory set to ±0.7% traceable to the
U.S. National Institute of Standards
and Technology.

Accuracy

: ±1.2% worst case

(±0.9% rss) for one year.

Specifications

describe the

instrument’s warranted performance
and apply after a 30 minute warm-up.
These specifications are valid over its
operating/environmental range unless
otherwise stated and after performing
a zero and calibration procedure.

Supplemental characteristics
(shown in italics) are intended to
provide additional information, useful
in applying the instrument by giving
typical (expected), but not warranted
performance parameters. These
characteristics are shown in italics or
labeled as "typical", "nominal" or
"approximate".

For information on measurement
uncertainty calculations, refer to

Application Note 64-1B,
"Fundamentals of RF and Microwave
Power Measurements", literature num-
ber 5965-6380E.

Frequency Range:

9 kHz to 110

GHz, sensor dependent.

Power Range:

–70 dBm to +44 dBm

(100 pW to 25 W), sensor dependent.

Power Sensors:

Compatible with all

8480 series and E-series sensors.

Single Sensor Dynamic Range:

90 dB maximum (E-series sensors),
50 dB maximum ( 8480 series sensors).

Display Units:

Absolute: Watts or dBm.
Relative: Percent or dB.

Display Resolution:

Selectable

resolution of 1.0, 0.1, 0.01, and 0.001
dB in Log mode, or 1 to 4 digits in
Linear mode.

Default Resolution:

0.01 dB in Log

mode, 3 digits in Linear mode.

EPM Series E4418B and E4419B Power Meters
