General Information Calibration Kit Overview Lowband Loads The lowband loads are metrology-grade, 50 ohm terminations which have been optimized for lowband performance up to 2 GHz. The rugged internal structure provides for highly repeatable connections. A distributed resistive element on sapphire provides excellent stability and return loss. Sliding Loads The sliding loads in this kit are designed to provide excellent performance from 3 GHz to 18 GHz. The inner and outer conductors of the a

General Information Incoming Inspection Incoming Inspection Refer to “Kit Contents” on page 1-2 to verify a complete shipment. Use Table 1-1 on page 1-5 to record the serial numbers of all serialized devices in your kit. Check for damage. The foam-lined storage case provides protection during shipping. If the case or any device appears damaged, or if the shipment is incomplete, refer to “Contacting Agilent” on page 5-3. Agilent will arrange for repair or replacement of incomplete or damaged

General Information Serial Numbers Serial Numbers A serial number is attached to this calibration kit. The first four digits followed by a letter comprise the serial number prefix; the last five digits are the suffix, unique to each calibration kit. Recording the Device Serial Numbers In addition to the kit serial number, the devices in the kit are individually serialized (serial numbers are labeled onto the body of each device). Record these serial numbers in Table 1-1. Recording the serial

General Information Precision Slotless Connectors Precision Slotless Connectors The female type-N connectors in this calibration kit are metrology-grade, precision slotless connectors (PSC). A characteristic of metrology-grade connectors is direct traceability to national measurement standards through their well-defined mechanical dimensions. Conventional female center conductors are slotted. When mated, the female center conductor is flared by the male pin. Because physical dimensions determ

General Information Clarifying the Sex of a Connector Clarifying the Sex of a Connector In this manual, the sex of calibration devices and adapters are referred to in terms of their connector interface. For example, a male open has a male connector. However, during a measurement calibration, the network analyzer softkey menus label a type-N calibration device with reference to the sex of the analyzer’s test port connector—not the calibration device connector. For example, the label SHORT(F) o

Specifications Mechanical Characteristics Mechanical Characteristics Mechanical characteristics such as center conductor protrusion and pin depth are not performance specifications. They are, however, important supplemental characteristics related to electrical performance. Agilent Technologies verifies the mechanical characteristics of the devices in this kit with special gaging processes and electrical testing. This ensures that the device connectors do not exhibit any improper pin depth

Specifications Mechanical Characteristics NOTE The gages for measuring type-N connectors compensate for the designed offset of 5.26 mm (0.207 inch), therefore, protrusion and recession readings are in relation to a zero reference plane (as if the inner and outer conductor planes were intended to be flush). Gage readings can be directly compared with the observed values listed in Table 2-2. The pin depth value of each calibration device in this kit is not specified, but is an important mecha

Use, Maintenance, and Care of the Devices Electrostatic Discharge Electrostatic Discharge Protection against ESD (electrostatic discharge) is essential while connecting, inspecting, or cleaning connectors attached to a static-sensitive circuit (such as those found in test sets). Static electricity can build up on your body and can easily damage sensitive internal circuit elements when discharged. Static discharges too small to be felt can cause permanent damage. Devices such as calibration
