NOTES: 1) Applies to all Boonton Power Meters unless otherwise indicated with the exception of Model 4200 and 4200A.
The lower limit of the Dynamic Range for Models 4200 and 4200A does not extend below -60 dBm and the
upper limit is degraded by 10 dB with the exception of sensor Model 51033 where the Dynamic range is -40 to +30 dBm.
2) After two-hour warm-up: High frequency power linearity uncertainty: (worst case) (0.005 x f) dB per dB,
where f is in GHz above +4 dBm for sensors 51011, 51012, 51013 ; above +14 dBm for sensor 51015;
above +24 dBm for sensor 51033
3) Power Linearity Uncertainty at 50 MHz:
<10 dBm: 1% for 51011, 51012, 51013, 51015, and 51033 sensors.
10 to 20 dBm: 1% for 51015 and 51033 sensors; 3% for 51011, 51012 and 51013 sensors.
20 to 33 dBm: 3% for 51015 and 51033 sensors.
30 to 37 dBm: 3% for 51078 sensor.
4) Power Linearity Uncertainty 30/50 MHz. -30 to -10 dBm: 6% (0.27 dB), -10 to +10 dBm: 4% (0.18 dB)
5) Temperature influence: 0.02 dB/ºC ( 0 to 25ºC), 0.01 dB/ºC (25 to 55ºC)
6) Temperature influence: 0.03 dB/ºC (0 to 55ºC)
7) Temperature influence: -30 to -10 dBm: 0.03 dB/ºC, -10 to +10 dBm: 0.01 dB/ºC (0 to 55ºC)
8) Not available on 4200 series.
