User Information
Adapters
Like the other devices in your kit, the adapters are built to very tight tolerances.
This provides a good performance and ensures stable, repeatable connections.
The adapters are designed so that their nominal electrical lengths are the
same, this allows them to be used in the calibration procedures for
non–insertable devices, but can also be used as connector savers.
Loads
The loads have been optimized for broadband performance up to 50 GHz. The
Load can be combined with the Lossy Delay Line to construct a broadband
termination. The Load and Lossy Delay Line combination can be used for such
purposes as terminating an unused port on a device-under-test, or a “quick”
open/short/load calibration from DC to 110 GHz.
NOTE
The best operating region of the load is from DC to 50 GHz. Performance
degrades quickly above 50 GHz. For best results, the “lowband load” definition
should be used. If desired, an open/short/ broadband load calibration may be
performed up to 110 GHz by choosing the broadband load, broadband open and
then the broadband Short 3.
