Advanced Calibration Techniques for VNAs

AccuracyBenefits of Electronic Calibration• Provides fast AND accurate calibration– Typical calibration takes 20 to 60 seconds with ECal versusseveral to many minutes when using mechanical standards– Accuracy equivalent to a short-open-sliding-load calibration• No risk of connecting the wrong mechanical standard• Lowers wear and tear on connectors and standards• Lowers chances of repetitivemotioninjuries of users,especially for test systemswith a large number of test portsPrecision Standard Economy ECal Response RawEase of useAdvanced VNA Calibration© Agilent Technologies, Inc. 2006 Page M6- 76
