Step Attenuator Loss Characterization
The step attenuator combination should have each attenuator setting
characterized by a metrology lab at 50 MHz. The following tables show which
sections of the 10 dB and 1 dB step attenuators are utilized for each attenuator
setting. The tables also list the Allowable Uncertainty for each attenuator
setting. The interconnect cable should NEVER be disconnected once the loss
characterization is performed.
