Power linearity
Table 6. E4410 Series power linearity specification.
Power
100 pW to 10 mW (–70 to +10 dBm)
10 mW to 100 mW (+10 to +20 dBm)
The chart in Figure 1 shows the typical
uncertainty in making a relative power
measurement, using the same power
meter channel and the same power sensor
to obtain the reference and the measured
values� Example A illustrates a relative
gain (amplifier measurement)� Example
B illustrates a relative loss (insertion
loss measurement)� This chart assumes
negligible change in frequency and
mismatch occur when transitioning from
the power level used as the reference to
the power level being measured�
Example A
– P = 10(P)/10 x 1 mW
– P = 10 6/10 x 1 mW
– P = 3�98 mW
– 3 % x 3.98 mW = 119.4 μW
Example B
– P = 10 (P)/10 x1 mW
– P = 10 –35/10 x 1 mW
– P = 316 nW
– 3% x 316 nW = 9�48 nW
where
– P = power in Watts
and
– (P) = power in dBm
Mechanical characteristic
Mechanical characteristics such as center
conductor protrusion and pin depth are
not performance specifications� They
are, however, important supplemental
characteristics related to electrical
performance� At no time should the pin
depth of the connector be protruding�
