Definitions
Specification (spec.):
Warranted performance. Specifications include guardbands to account for the
expected statistical performance distribution, measurement uncertainties, and
changes in performance due to environmental conditions. Supplemental information is intended to provide information that is helpful for using the instrument
but that is not guaranteed by the product warranty.
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):
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.

Test condition for Measurement Time
The measurement time of E4982A is scattered to some extent by an overhead of the internal operation system and other
conditions, so it is difficult to define the specification of handler interface timing. Thus, for your reference, we provide
“SPD” data on it in table by defining the following test condition.
Median: Median value of running one minute of measurement data
Max.: Maximum value of running one minute of measurement data
NOTE
1. The instrument’s operating system sometimes suffers interruptions during measurement, and we sometimes observe
an extremely large overhead in handler interface timings. The table excludes such special cases, thus you can
sometimes see timing over the maximum value data shown in the table. If you make a handshake using the READY_FOR_TRIGGER signal of the handler interface, your test system can continue to work correctly regardless of
such an irregular measurement time drift.
2. If your system communicates with external devices, you will see longer timing results than those on the table.
3. In the case of using a bus trigger in the GPIB/LAN/USB system instead of the handler interface, you should measure
the test cycle time for yourself, because the system performance depends heavily on the system parameters.
Of course, you will see much longer test cycle times from your system software overhead.

Measurement Support Functions
Error correction function
Available calibration and compensation
OPEN/SHORT/LOAD calibration
Connect OPEN, SHORT, and LOAD standards to the desired reference plane and measure each
kind of calibration data. The reference plane is called calibration reference plane.
Low-Loss capacitor calibration
Connect the dedicated standard (Low-Loss capacitor) to the calibration reference plane and
measure the calibration data.
Port extension compensation
(Fixture selection)
When a device is connected to the terminal that is extended from the calibration reference plane,
set the electrical length between the calibration plane and the device contact. Select a model
number of the registered test fixtures in the E4982A's softkey menu or enter the electrical length
for user's test fixture.
OPEN/SHORT compensation
When a device is connected to the terminal that is extended from the calibration reference plane,
make OPEN and/or SHORT states at the device contact and measure each kind of compensation
date.
Calibration/compensation data measurement point
Data measurement points
Same as measurement points which are set in the measurement point setup display.
(Changing the frequency, oscillator level, or measurement speed settings after the calibration or
compensation makes the calibration and compensation data invalid.)

Measurement resolution

Test Signal Level

Error correction
OPEN/SHORT/LOAD Calibration, OPEN/SHORT Compensation. (Changing the frequency or oscillator level settings after the calibration or compensation makes the calibration and compensation
data invalid.)
Measurement uncertainty (SPD)
(At averaging factor=128, within ± 5 °C from the calibration temperature. Measurement accuracy
applies when the calibration is performed at 23 °C ± 5 °C. When the calibration is performed
beyond 23 °C ± 5 °C, the measurement accuracy decreases to half that described.)
