MEASUREMENT REFERENCE
NOTE: Audio levels in dBu are marked as dBm on the HP8903.
REQUIRED TEST EQUIPMENT (OR APPROVED EQUIVALENT OR SUPERIOR MODELS):
dB Conversion Chart
0dBV = 2.2 dBu
0dBu = 0dBm assuming the load = 600 ohms
Be aware that dBu is a measure of voltage and dBm
is a measure of power. The HP8903, for example,
should be labeled dBu instead of dBm since it is a
voltage measurement. These two terms are often
used interchangeably even though they have
different meanings.
