MA24106A UG 3-13
Table 3-1, describes the number of averages needed to attain a certain noise level for a particular power level
measurement with the Low Aperture Time mode setting.
Table 3-2, describes the number of averages needed to attain a certain noise level for a particular power level
measurement with the High Aperture Time mode setting.
