N1913A/14A Epm Series Power Meters Performance Characteristics - Keysight N1914A Datasheet

N1913A/14A EPM Series Power Meters Performance Characteristics

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�"

Selectable resolution of: 1.0, 0.1, 0.01 and 0.001 dB in logarithmic mode, or 1, 2, 3 and 4 significant digits in linear mode
0.01 dB in logarithmic mode or three digits in linear mode
± 0.02 dB (Logarithmic) or ± 0.5% (Linear). Please add the corresponding power sensor linearity percentage from Tables
6, 9 and 10 (for the E-Series sensors), Table 14 (for the 8480 series sensors) and Table 16 (for N8480 sensors) to assess
the overall system accuracy.
± 0.04 dB (Logarithmic) or ± 1.0% (Linear). Please add the corresponding power sensor linearity percentage from the
mentioned tables above to assess the overall system accuracy.
0.0000175% (meter only)
Power sensor dependent (refer Table 1), this specification applies when zeroing is performed with sensor input
disconnected from the POWER REF.
This parameter is also called long term stability and is the change in the power meter indication over a long time (within
one hour) at a constant temperature after a 24-hour warm-up of the power meter. Sensor dependent, refer to Table 1.
For E9300 sensors, refer to Table 11 for complete data.
Averaging over 1 to 1024 readings is available for reducing noise. Table 1 provides the measurement noise for a
particular power sensor with the number of averages set to 16 for normal mode and 32 for x2 mode. Use the "Noise
Multiplier" for the appropriate mode (normal or x2) and number of averages to determine the total measurement noise
value.
For example: For a Keysight 8481D power sensor in normal mode with the number of averages set to 4, the
measurement noise is equal to: (< 45 pW x 2.75) = < 124 pW
