Agilent 81950A Compact TLS module, First Edition
Figure 10 Signal to source spontaneous emission ratio.
Conditions:
As specified.
Measurement:
Using an optical spectrum analyzer at 0.5 nm resolution bandwidth (to
address the possibility of higher SSE within a narrower bandwidth), then
extrapolated to 1 nm bandwidth.
Tuning time
Specifies the time needed to tune to another wavelength.
Conditions:
Tuning distance as specified. The time is measured from sending the
command to the TLS until the tuning operation has finished.
Wavelength range
The range of wavelengths for which the specifications apply (if not
otherwise specified).
