7 Using 8480 Series Power Sensors

Introduction

The 8480 Series offers a wide range of both thermocouple and diode based power
sensors. Many have very specific applications, for example the 110GHz W8486A
or the +44 dBm 8482B. However, they do not have their calibration factors stored
in EEPROM, unlike all E-Series, and require that you use default calibration tables
or manually enter the required correction factors. Likewise, they cannot be used
to make peak or time gated measurements.
Please refer to the documentation supplied with your Keysight 8480 Series power
sensors for specification and calibration information.
