General Information

Warranty
The power sensors are warranted and certified as indicated on the inside cover of
this manual.

Instruments Covered by Manual


These instruments have a two-part serial number: the prefix (two letters and the
first four numbers), and the suffix (the last four numbers). The two letters identify
the country in which the unit was manufactured. The four numbers of the prefix
are a code identifying the date of the last major design change incorporated in
your Keysight Technologies product. The four-digit suffix is a sequential number
and, coupled with the prefix, provides a unique identification for each unit
produced. The contents of this manual apply directly to all serial numbers unless
otherwise indicated.

Description
The E4412A and E4413A power sensors are diode power sensors. They are
intended for measurement of CW microwave power levels in a wide dynamic
range from -70 dBm to +20 dBm (100 pW to 100 mW). The E4412A measures at
frequencies from 10 MHz to 18.0 GHz. The E4413A measures at frequencies from
50 MHz to 26.5 GHz. These are high-speed power sensors, and do not incorporate
narrow-bandwidth averaging used in average-power sensors. Signals with digital,
pulse, or other forms of amplitude modulation may introduce measurement errors.
Multi-tone signals (containing multiple frequency components), or signals with
significant harmonic content (> -45 dBc) may introduce measurement errors at
high power levels. (Specifications for the power sensors are in Table 1-1).

These power sensors measure CW power, displayed on a compatible power meter


in logarithmic (dBm or dB) or linear (Watts or %) measurement units. The E4413A
is shipped with a 3.5-mm to Type-N adapter, part number 08485-60005.

Keysight E4412A and E4413A Operating and Service Guide 19


1 Operation and Service Guide

The E4412A and E4413A power sensors are compatible ONLY with the newer
NOTE E44XX-Series power meters. They are NOT compatible with the earlier
430-Series, E1416A, or 70100A power meters.

The E4412A and E4413A power sensors are extremely static- sensitive. Do not
NOTE open the power sensor unless you and the power sensor are at a static-free
workstation.

Specifications
The specifications listed in Table 1-1 are the performance standards or limits
against which the power sensor may be tested. These specifications are valid
ONLY after proper calibration of the power meter. Refer to the Calibration
Procedure Using Keysight E-Series Power Sensors in the E4418A or the Keysight
E4419A Power Meter User’s Guide.

Figure 1-2 Relative Mode Power Measurement Linearity with Power Meter/
Sensor at 25 ºC (Typical)

The chart in Figure 1-2 shows the typical uncertainty in making relative power
measurements with the E44XX-Series power meter in the Rel (relative) mode. In a
relative measurement, two power levels are compared using a single sensor. The
typical measurement uncertainty can be found by drawing a vertical line at a
power level used as a reference, and a horizontal line at the power being
measured. The region where these two lines intersect shows the typical
uncertainty. This assumes that the reference power and the measured power are
at the same frequency, and neglects errors due to zero set, zero drift, and noise. It
also assumes no change in mismatch when measuring the “Power level used as
reference” and the “Power level being measured”. This chart illustrates that the
best relative power measurement accuracy is obtained when the reference and
the measured power levels are equal to, or less than, –20 dBm. Care in choosing
the power levels can yield improved measurement accuracy. Example A illustrates
a relative gain (amplifier measurement) and example B illustrates a relative loss
(insertion loss measurement).

Keysight E4412A and E4413A Operating and Service Guide 23


1 Operation and Service Guide

EXAMPLE A (Amplifier Gain Measurement):


Input power (reference) = –35 dBm; power measured = +6 dBm’ so the relative
gain is +41 dB. the chart indicates a typical error of ±6 %, which corresponds to
+0.25 dB/–0.27 dB uncertainty in the gain measurement.
EXAMPLE B (Insertion Loss Measurement):
Reference power = –25 dBm; power measured = –35 dBm, for the case of an
insertion loss of 10 dB. the chart indicates a typical error of ±1 %, which
corresponds to ±0.04 dBm uncertainty in the measurement.

Calibration Factor (CF) and Reflection Coefficient (Rho)


Calibration factor and reflection coefficient data are given at 1 GHz increments on
a data sheet included with the power sensor. This data is unique to each sensor. If
you have more than one sensor, match the serial number on the data sheet with
the serial number on the power sensor you are using. The CF corrects for the
frequency response of the sensor. The power meter automatically reads the CF
data stored in the sensor and uses it to make the corrections.
Reflection Coefficient (Rho, or ρ) relates to SWR according to the following
formula:
SWR = (1+ρ)/(1-ρ)
Typical uncertainties of the CF data are listed in Table 1-2 for the E4412A power
sensor, and in Table 1-3 for the E4413A power sensor. The uncertainty analysis for
the calibration of the sensors was done in accordance with the ISO/TAG4 Guide.
The uncertainty data reported on the calibration certificate is the expanded
uncertainty with 95% confidence level and a coverage factor of 2.
Additionally, at frequencies other than the reference frequency, for measurements
above 0 dBm include 0.5 %/dB high power calibration factor uncertainty.

Power Meter Calibrations


Follow the calibration procedures given in your power meter manual. The E4413A
power sensor is fitted with 3.5 mm (m) connectors as standard. To convert the 3.5
mm (m) connector for calibration, an adapter (3.5 mm (f) to Type-N (m)) is
included with the power sensor. See Figure 1-3.

Figure 1-3 E4413A power sensor with adapter

– The 3.5 mm to Type-N adapter is intended for the use of the 1 mW, 50 MHz
NOTE power reference of the power meter only. Its function as a calibration
reference may be compromised if it is used for other purpose.
– The adapter supplied with a new sensor typically has a loss of < 0.1%.
Adapter loss could potentially contribute to absolute power measurement
accuracy and needs to be considered.

Operation and Service Guide 1

Service
Service instructions consist of principles of operation, troubleshooting, and
repairs.

Principles of Operation
The A1 Bulkhead assembly provides a 50 ohm load to the RF signal applied to the
power sensor. A diode assembly in the bulkhead rectifies the applied RF to
produce a dc voltage which varies with the RF power across the 50 ohm load.
Thus the voltage varies with the RF power dissipated in the load. With maximum
specified RF power (100 mW) the dc voltage is approximately 1V.
The low-level dc voltage from the bulkhead assembly must be amplified before it
can be transferred on standard cables to the power meter. The amplification is
provided by an input amplifier assembly which consists of a chopper (sampling
gate) and an input amplifier. The chopper circuit converts the dc voltage to an ac
voltage. To do this, the chopper uses two field effect transistors (FETs), A2Q1 and
A2Q2, controlled by a 440 Hz square wave generated by the power meter. The
amplitude of the sampling gate output (drain of A2Q1, source of A2Q2) is a 440 Hz
square wave which varies with the RF power input. The 440 Hz ac output is
applied to the input amplifier A2Q3 which provides the input to the first amplifier
stage in the power meter.
The E44XX-Series power meter automatically detects when an E44XX Series
power sensor is connected and downloads the correction data from the sensor’s
EEPROM. This configures the power meter to operate over the +20 dBm to -70
dBm power range with that particular sensor’s unique correction data
applied.

Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting information is intended to first isolate the power sensor, the
cable, or the power meter as the defective component. When the power sensor is
isolated, a “Restored Sensor Module” must be used for repair. See Table 1-8.

Keysight E4412A and E4413A Operating and Service Guide 39


1 Operation and Service Guide

If error message 241 or 310 is indicated on the power meter, suspect failed power
sensor. If no error message is displayed, but a problem occurs when making a
measurement, try replacing the cable from the power meter to the power sensor.
If the problem still exists, try using a different power sensor to determine if the
problem is in the power meter or in the power sensor.

Electrostatic discharge will render the power sensor inoperative. Do not,


CAUTION under any circumstances, open the power sensor unless you and the power
sensor are in a static free environment.

Repair of Defective Sensor


There are no serviceable parts inside the E44XX-Series sensors. If the sensor is
defective, replace the entire “module” with the appropriate “Restored sensor
Module.” See Table 1-8.

Connector Maintenance
Stable and repeatable measurements can only be achieved if the devices are clean
and undamaged. Careful and consistent connections are also necessary to achieve
maximum stability and repeatability. Therefore, always handle the devices with
care, do not overtighten them, and keep them properly stored when not in use.
Precision connectors should be regularly cleaned and gauged — measured with a
special dial gauge to ensure that they have not been mechanically damaged. A
damaged connector can instantly ruin the mated part.

40 Keysight E4412A and E4413A Operating and Service Guide


Operation and Service Guide 1

Ensure the steps below are followed:


– Select the test equipment for the lowest SWR.
– Keep the cable length as short as possible.
– Use good quality cables.
– Select the appropriate connectors.
– Keep the connectors clean.
– Measure (gauge) the connectors regularly.
– Replace faulty, worn, or damaged cables and connectors promptly.
– Do not make your own cables for use at high frequencies unless you test them
first.
– Minimize the number of adapters.
– If possible, use semi-rigid cables for permanently connected cables.
– Follow the cable manufacturer’s recommendation for minimum bend-radius.
– Fix the measurement equipment to the bench if possible (or rack it up).
– Do not overtighten connectors and do not allow them to become loose — use a
torque wrench.
– Do not mate dissimilar families, for example APC-3.5 and SMA.
– Avoid temperature extremes.

Cleaning
Cleaning Solutions
Keeping in mind its flammable nature; a solution of pure isopropyl or ethyl alcohol
can be used to clean the connector.

Connector Cleaning

The RF connector beads deteriorate when contacted by hydrocarbon


CAUTION compounds such as acetone, trichloroethylene, carbon tetrachloride, and
benzene.

Keysight E4412A and E4413A Operating and Service Guide 41


1 Operation and Service Guide

Clean the connector only at a static free workstation. Electrostatic discharge


CAUTION to the center pin of the connector will render the power sensor inoperative.

Clean the connector face using a cotton swab dipped in isopropyl alcohol. If the
swab is too big use a round wooden toothpick wrapped in a lint free cotton cloth
dipped in isopropyl alcohol. Refer to Keysight Application Note 326, Principals of
Microwave Connector Care (5954-1566) or Microwave Connector Care
(08510-90064) for proper cleaning methods.
