  • 1 Valid for Tref±5 °C. For temperatures other than Tref, the level calibration accuracy is valid after applying the gain correction factor for ΔT.

    2 DC-coupled from input to output, but calibrated only from 50 MHz to 8 GHz.

    3 Calculate the correction factor using the following equation: ΔGain = (Gain variation by temperature) * ΔT

    where

    • ΔT = Tsensor- Tref
    • Tsensor = the temperature reading of the onboard temperature sensor in °C, as reported by the ni5690 Get Temperature VI
    • Tref = 26 °C

    4 Valid for Tref± 5 °C. For temperatures other than Tref, the level calibration accuracy is valid after applying the gain correction factor for ΔT.

    5 DC-coupled from input to output, but only calibrated from 50 MHz to 8 GHz.

    6 Calculate the correction factor using the following equation: ΔGain = (Gain variation by temperature) *ΔT

    where

    • ΔT = Tsensor - Tref
    • Tsensor = the temperature reading of the onboard temperature sensor in °C, as reported by the ni5690 Get Temperature VI
    • Tref = 26 °C

    7 Valid for Tref±5 °C. For temperatures other than Tref, the level calibration accuracy is valid after applying the gain correction factor for ΔT.

    8 The attenuator settling time is measured to 0.5 dB of the final value when switching from minimum to maximum attenuation. Achieving settling times closer to the final attenuation value may take substantially longer.

    9 Calculate the correction factor using the following equation: ΔGain = (Gain variation by temperature) * ΔT

    where

    • ΔT = Tsensor -Tref
    • Tsensor = the temperature reading of the onboard temperature sensor in °C, as reported by the ni5690 Get Temperature VI
    • Tref = 26 °C

    10 The warranted specification is valid only between 10 MHz and 8 GHz. Determine intermediate bounds by linearly interpolating the provided data.
