The Ground Loop (De-)Embedding dialogs contain the following control elements:
(De-)embed DUT enables or disables the (de-)embedding function.
Transformation Network contains all available ground loop networks (see below). Networks are
defined either by means of imported S-parameter data or by lumped elements. The active network
appears in inverse colors. The element parameters (C, R, L) for the selected network are
displayed on the right side.
Read Data From File... is enabled as long as the 1-Port Data network is active. This network is
defined by its S-parameters stored in a one-port Touchstone file (*.s1p). No additional parameters
are required.
Set to Ideal Ground is enabled as long as the 1-Port Data network is active. An imported S-
parameter set is replaced by the S-parameters of an ideal through connection, which eliminates
the transformation network.
Circuit models for ground loops
The first ground loop network is defined by its S-parameters stored in an imported one-port Touchstone
file (*.s1p). No additional parameters are required.
The alternative networks are defined by an inductor L connected in series with a resistor (Shunt L), and by
a capacitor C connected in parallel with a resistor (Serial C). In the default setting the resistors are not
effective, since the serial Rs are set to 0 Ω, the shunt Rs are set to 10 MΩ.
