dBm 1 milliwatt (.001W), Typical measurement for audio input/output specifications. Also used in low power optical transmitter specifications.
dBm(600) The standard audio reference power level defined by 1 milliwatt measured with respect to a 600 ohm load. This measurement is commonly used in broadcasting, professional audio applications and is a common telephone communications standard.
dBm(50) This standard is defined by 1 milliwatt measured with respect to a 50 ohm load. This measurement is commonly used in RF transmissions/receiving systems.
dBm(75) This standard is defined by 1 milliwatt measured with respect to a 75 ohm load. This standard is common in some RF systems particularly cable TV systems.
dBmW This is the generic form for a 1 milliwatt reference, also written as dBm. This term usually has an inferred load reference, depending on the application.
dBW This is a common form for power amplification relative to a 1 watt reference (usually 50 ohms). Typical applications are found in RF Power Amplifiers and High Power Audio Amplifiers specifications.
dBuV This is a common form for specifying input RF levels to a communications receiver. This is called dB microvolt where 1 microvolt = 1*10E-6V.
dbV While this dB term is defined, it is rarely used in defining communication systems. The dB value is obtained with respect to 1 Volt.
dB/bit This is a common term used for specifying the dynamic range or resolution for a Pulse Coded Modulation (PCM) system such as a CD player. This reference is defined by 20 Log(2)/bit = 6.02dB/bit.
dBi This is dB isotropic . It is used as the reference when defining Antenna Gain.
dB/Hz This is relative noise power in 1-Hz bandwidth. This term is used often in digital communications and in defining a laser's Relative Intensity Noise (RIN). For a laser system, this is an electrical not an optical measurement. A typical1 RIN for a semiconductor laser is -150 dB/Hz.
dBW/K-Hz This is a common term used when analyzing carrier-to-noise (C/N) in a communications link such as a satellite link budget. This value is based on the Boltzmann's constant expressed in dB as 10 Log(1.38*10E-23) = -228.6 dBW/K-Hz. |
