Description
Specification definitions
There are two types of product specifications:
- Warranted specifications are specifications which are covered by the product warranty and apply over a range of 0 to 55°C unless otherwise noted. Warranted specifications include measurement uncertainty calculated with a 95 % confidence
- Characteristic specifications are specifications that are not warranted. They describe product performance that is useful in the application of the product. These characteristic specifications are shown in italics.
Characteristic information is representative of the product. In many cases, it may also be supplemental to a warranted specification. Characteristics specifications are not verified on all units. There are several types of characteristic specifications. They can be divided into two groups: One group of characteristic types describes ‘attributes’ common to all products of a given model or option. Examples of characteristics that describe ‘attributes’ are the product weight and ’50-ohm input Type-N connector’. In these examples, product weight is an ‘approximate’ value and a 50-ohm input is ‘nominal’. These two terms are most widely used when describing a product’s ‘attributes’.
The second group describes ‘statistically’ the aggregate performance of the population of products. These characteristics describe the expected behavior of the population of products. They do not guarantee the performance of any individual product. No measurement uncertainty value is accounted for in the specification. These specifications are referred to as ‘typical’.
Conditions
The power sensor will meet its specifications when:
- stored for a minimum of two hours at a stable temperature within the operating temperature range, and turned on for at least 30 minutes
- the power sensor is within its recommended calibration period, and

Description
Perform measurements down to DC range
The Keysight (Agilent) U8487A 10 MHz – 50 GHz USB Thermocouple Power Sensor for EMC Applications with the capability to measure down to DC (with option 200). This is especially useful for Signal Source/Network Analyzer calibration and power references as well as EMC applications.
Built in external trigger in
External trigger will enable accurate trigger of small signals close to the signal noise floor. With the built-in trigger in connection on the Keysight (Agilent) U8487A 10 MHz – 50 GHz USB Thermocouple Power Sensor for EMC Applications; you can connect an external trigger signal from a signal source or the device under test directly to the USB sensor through a standard BNC to SMB cable.
Measurements direct from your PC
The Keysight (Agilent) U8487A 10 MHz – 50 GHz USB Thermocouple Power Sensor for EMC Applications comes with the N1918A power panel software at no additional cost. For enhanced features, the N1918A Power Analysis Manager software is available for purchase separately.
