Agilent E932x Power Sensor (Average Path) Functional Test
Description
This test verifies that the meter/sensor combination can make average path
RF measurements in both upper and lower power ranges.
Agilent E- Series power sensors operate over a wide dynamic range: the value
is sensor dependent and ranges from −70 dBm to +44 dBm. However as there is
an amplifier in these power sensors, the voltages presented to the power
sensor connector are always within the range of voltages available from the
Agilent 11683A range calibrator.
Equipment
• Power sensor cable: Agilent E9288A.
• Reference attenuator: Agilent 11708A.
• Power sensor: Agilent E9321A.
Test S et up
Refer to Figure 2- 7 and Figure 2- 8 below.
Procedure
Use the following procedure to perform the test:
The procedure details the key presses required on the Agilent E4416A. For the Agilent
E4417A the equivalent key presses must be performed on both channels.
