System Configuration

The basic 8510C measurement system configura-
tion needed for test port flatness correction is
shown in Figure 1. A single channel power meter
such as the Agilent 437B, E4418A, or E4418B is
required, along with a compatible sensor, for per-
forming the power flatness calibration. Power
meters with the 437B command set must be used
for the power level flatness correction.

figuration for test port flatness correction

The Agilent 8511B frequency converter test
set may be used with the test port power flatness-
correction feature. The range of the test port
power is determined by the available power of
the 8360 source and the insertion loss of the com-
ponents added to the measurement system.
