Defi nitions
Specifi cation (spec.):
Warranted performance. All specifi cations apply at 23 ºC (± 5 ºC), unless otherwise stated, and 90 minutes after the
instrument has been turned on. Specifi cations include guard bands to account for the expected statistical performance
distribution, measurement uncertainties, and changes in performance due to environmental conditions.
Typical (typ.):
Describes performance that will be met by a minimum of 80% of all products. It is not guaranteed by the product warranty.
Supplemental performance data (SPD):
Supplemental performance data represents the value of a parameter that is most likely to occur; the expected mean or
average. It is not guaranteed by the product warranty.
General characteristics:
A general, descriptive term that does not imply a level of performance.
Boundary Conditions
In this data sheet, boundary conditions are given for the specifi cations. For example, system dynamic range is 98 dB with
the following boundary conditions.
Frequency: 10 MHz, IF bandwidth: 3 kHz
If the same boundary conditions fall under more than one category in a table, apply the best value.

Corrected System Performance
The specifications in this section apply to measurements made with the Agilent E5072A network analyzer under the following conditions:
• No averaging applied to data
• Environmental temperature of 23 °C (± 5 °C) with less than 1 °C deviation from the calibration temperature
• Response and isolation calibration performed

1. The test port dynamic range is calculated as the difference between the test port rms noise floor and the source maximum output power.
The effective dynamic range must take measurement uncertainty and interfering signals into account.
2. Typical performance might not be met from 60 to 70 kHz.
3. The direct receiver access input system dynamic range is calculated as the difference between the direct receiver access input noise fl oor and the
source maximum output power. The effective dynamic range must take measurement uncertainties and interfering signals into account.
