Table 3. The measurement speed of power sensors that are supported by N1913/1914A and
E4418/4419B
High speed measurement is essential in high-volume manufacturing of RF and
microwave components and systems. Faster test time will improve the productivity
by enabling users to test more devices in a shorter time.
Measurement time can be improved by switching the measurement speed.
There are three types of measurement speed settings: NORMAL (by default),
DOUBLE (x2), and FAST. In NORMAL and DOUBLE modes, full sensor functionality
is available. In FAST mode, averaging limits are disabled and set to 1, which
allows fast measurement with slight degradation of measurement accuracy at
lower power.
Because of the SCPI backward compatibility, the same SCPI command for fast
measurement mode can be used between the N1913/1914A and the E4418/4419B.
Therefore, the N1913/1914A can be used directly by current E4418/4419B users
without needing software recoding. For example, using the SCPI command of
SENS1:SPE 200 sets the measurement speed on Channel 1 to 200 readings/
second (rds/s). But in reality, the N1913/1914A can achieve up to 400 rds/s in fast
measurement mode while the E4418/4419B achieves 200 rds/s only.
