Inputs and Outputs
The input and output connection slots were designed to fit the following connections: vertical SMA,
horizontal SMA, wires, or through-hole test points. Examples of these four connectors are shown in this
section.
The SMA recommended for this board is TE Connectivity part number 5-1814400-1.
Figure 29
shows
SMA vertical connectors attached to both the input and output terminal.
