  • Page 23: General Information

    Description The E4412A and E4413A power sensors are diode power sensors. They are intended for measurement of CW microwave power levels in a wide dynamic range from - 70 dBm to +20 dBm (100 pW to 100 mW). The E4412A measures at frequencies from 10 MHz to 18.0 GHz.

  • Page 24: Specifications

    They are NOT compatible with the earlier 430-Series, E1416A, or 70100A power meters. The E4412A and E4413A power sensors are extremely static- sensitive. Do not open the N O T E power sensor unless you and the power sensor are at a static-free workstation.
