SLOS743K –AUGUST 2011–REVISED APRIL 2014
Resulting power out can be measured with a power meter or spectrum analyzer with power meter function
or other equipment capable of making a "hot" measurement. Observe maximum power input levels on test
equipment and use attenuators whenever available to avoid damage to equipment. Expected output
power levels under various operating conditions are shown in Table 6-25.
