5. RF OUTPUT LEVEL LINEARITY

5. RF OUTPUT LEVEL LINEARITY

Description

This test checks the output level linearity of the E5071C test port output signal
across the specified level range. The RF output level is measured for power
level settings of -20 dBm (for Up to 8.5 GHz Option) or -25 dBm (for Over 8.5
GHz Option) to 10 dBm in 2.5 dB steps. (Ranges fluctuate with various
frequency ranges. See the spec sheet or the data sheet for details). The
linearity of the source power is measured and then the differences from the
source power at the 0 dBm (for Up to 8.5 GHz Option) or 5 dBm (for Over 8.5
GHz Option) setting and the measurement value are compared.

1. The DSG (Device Substitution Group) is listed below the equipment description, if
applicable. These devices are required to be mapped in TME to execute a test.
DSGs require either GPIB communication or are important for dynamic measure-
ment uncertainty calculations. N/A refers to required equipment that is not mapped
as DSGs in TME.
2. Over 8.5 GHz are Options 2D5/2K5/4D5/4K5.
3. Up to 8.5 GHz are Options
230/235/430/435/240/245/440/445/260/265/460/465/280/285/480/485.
