1.See the Agilent 8753ET/ES descriptions and options for a functional description. Measurement accuracy is dependent on the stability of the input signal.
2.Typical performance.
3.Marker resolution for magnitude, phase and delay is dependent upon measured value. Resolution is limited to five digits.
