Calibrating for Increased Measurement Accuracy
Calibrating for Non-Coaxial Devices (ES Analyzers Only)
Calibrating for Non-Coaxial Devices (ES Analyzers Only)
The analyzer has the capability of making calibrations using the TRL*/LRM* method. TRL* and LRM* are
implementations of the thru-reflect-line and line-reflect-match calibrations, modified for the three-sampler
receiver architecture in the analyzer.
TRL Error Correction
Create a User-Defined TRL Calibration Kit
In order to use the TRL technique, the calibration standards characteristics must be entered into the
analyzer's user defined calibration kit.
The following steps show you how to define a calibration kit to utilize a set of TRL (THRU, REFLECT, LINE)
standards. This example TRL kit contains the following:
•zero length THRU
• "flush" short for the REFLECT standard (0 second offset)
• 50 ohm transmission line with 80 ps of offset delay for the LINE
Modify the Standard Definitions
1. Press the following keys to start modifying the standard definitions:
2. To select a short, press . (In this example, the standard is a .)
3. Press the following keys:
4. To define the THRU/LINE standard, press:
5. To define the LINE/MATCH standard, press:
Enter a frequency greater than the maximum frequency range of the analyzer. For example, press
. Then, press .
6. For the purposes of this example, change the name of the standard by pressing and
modifying the name to "LINE."
7. When the title area shows the new label, press: .
