    Theory of Operation Theory of Operation The U8480 Series is an RF/μW power measurement device which is based on the thermocouple sensing element in order to provide a wider frequency range, and most importantly, higher accuracy and repeatability. This new thermocouple-based USB power sensor is a combination of Keysight's traditional power meter and power sensor packaged in a smaller form factor.
  • Page 35 The analog circuitry correction is combined with the linearity correction algorithm to achieve the internal calibration process. Internal calibration is allowable if there is RF input to the U8480 Series; it will not impact the U8480 Series performance.
