| |
Reference Plane | The reference planes of a calibration (or other normalization) can be changed by entering a line length. Assumes no loss, flat magnitude, | |
linear phase, and constant impedance. | ||
| ||
Auto Reference Plane Extension | Instead of manually entering a line length, this feature automatically adjusts phase shift from the current calibration (or other normalization) to | |
compensate for external cables (or test fixtures). Assumes no loss, flat magnitude, linear phase, and constant impedance. | ||
| ||
Frequency Range | Frequency range of the measurement can be narrowed within the calibration range without recalibration. | |
| Defined as the frequency span over which the phase change is computed at a given frequency point. The aperture can be changed without | |
Group Delay Aperture | recalibration. The minimum aperture is the frequency range divided by the number of points in calibration and can be increased to 20% of the | |
| frequency range. | |
Group Delay Range | < 180º of phase change within the aperture | |
|
| |
Trace Memory | A separate memory for each trace can be used to store measurement data for later display. The trace data can be saved and recalled. | |
