Introduction

The calibration unit R&S

®

ZN-Z103 is an integrated solution for automatic reflec-

tion calibration of a single network analyzer port.

The unit contains calibration standards that are electronically switched when a
calibration is performed. The calibration kit data for the internal standards is
stored in the calibration unit, so that the analyzer can calculate the error terms
and apply the calibration without any further input.

Automatic calibration is generally faster and more secure than manual calibration:

There is no need to connect several standards manually.

Invalid calibrations due to operator errors (e.g. wrong standards or improper
connections) are almost excluded.

No need to handle calibration kit data.

The internal standards do not wear out because they are switched electroni-
cally.
