Figure 6-54. Typical Measurement Set up
If the device measurement requires bias, it will be necessary to add external bias tees between
the attenuators and the fixture. The internal bias tees of the analyzer will not pass the
bias properly through the external attenuators, Be sure to calibrate with the external bias
tees in place (no bias applied during calibration) to remove their effect from the measurement.
Because the bias tees must be placed after the attenuators, they essentially become part of the
fixture. Their mismatch effects are the same for source match and load match, so the TRL CAL
routine will correct for their effects Although the fixed attenuators improve the raw mismatch
of the network analyzer system, they also degrade the measurement dynamic range.
This effective mismatch of the system after calibration has the biggest effect on reflection
measurements of highly reflective devices, Likewise, for well matched devices, the effects of
mismatch are negligible. This can be shown by the following approximation:
Reflection magnitude uncertainty
+ + +
Transmission magnitude uncertainty = + + +
where:
En = effective directivity
En = effective reflection tracking
Es = effective source match
= effective load match
effective crosstalk
= effective transmission tracking
= S-parameters of the device under test
