Evaluation Board

The 101-0738 Evaluation Board (EVB) was

designed for accurate measurement of the tuning

switch impedance and loss using 2 Port Series

(J4, J5) configuration. Three calibration standards

are provided. The open (J2) and short (J1)

standards (104 ps delay) are used for performing

port extensions and accounting for electrical length

and transmission line loss. The Thru (J8, J10)

standard can be used to estimate PCB

transmission line loss for scalar de-embedding.

The board consists of a 4 layer stack with

thickness of this board is 62 mils (1.57 mm).

The inner layers provide a ground plane for the

transmission lines. Each transmission line is

designed using a coplanar waveguide with

ground plane (CPWG) model using a trace width

of 32 mils (0.813 mm), gap of 15 mils (0.381 mm),

and a metal thickness of 1.4 mils (0.051 mm).
