1-5 OPERATION Each verification kit consists of three standards, each are supplied
with S-parameter data. Each standard verifies a primary S-parameter,
as follows:
q20 dB Attenuator — S21,S
12 Magnitude and Phase
q50 dB Attenuator — S21,S
12 Magnitude and Phase
qMismatch Attenuator — S11,S
22 Magnitude
Uncertainty windows are provided at each data point. The uncertainty
associated with the primary S-parameter for each device is small. Con-
versely, the uncertainty window can be large for some of the other
S-parameter data.
