10 Calibration & Normalization Overview of TDR & Calibration Calibration File & Data Storage Differences Levels of Calibration with TDR TDR Normalization vs. Calibration Risetime Effects on Accuracy The Normalization Process Advantages of Normalization Fixture Error Correction Techniques Most Accurate S-Parameter De-embedding Line-Reflect-Match (LRM) Thru-Reflect-Line (TRL) Short-Open-Load-Thru (SOLT) Normalization Reference Plane Calibration Port Extension Time Domain Gating = Pre-measurement error correction = Post-measurement error correction Easiest Page 20 Accuracies of Time & Freq Domain PHY Meas 10
11 Levels of Calibration with TDR NONE: No calibration is performed Hardware Service Calibration assumed MIN: Module Calibration & RPC (Reference Plane Calibration) Module Calibration calibrates the gains and offsets of the data acquisition channel. RPC removes the delay of the cables and de-skews edges for the Diff & Common Mode launches. MAX: Normalization (Agilent only) Normalizes to standards placed at the Reference plane. Takes out delay and the loss associated with the cables, the reflections due to mismatch of the source, and improves the pulse edge and flatness. Allows for maximum accuracy and is heavily risetime dependent.

12 Improved TDR Calibration Additional correction Save the frequency response of thru and reflect calibration standards Correct the measured response with the frequency response of calibration standard. The frequency and time domains are not simply related with FFT and IFFT With additional Correction Page 23 How Risetime Affects Noise in the Time Domain Noise in the TD increases with faster risetimes Normalization at 10pS can be achieved but it is extremely noisy Normalization (2046 pts) is a good balance between frequency domain accuracy and low TD noise TDR TDR TDR Page 24 Accuracies of Time & Freq Domain PHY Meas 12
13 Why Risetime Increases Noise in the Time Domain Risetimes determine the bandwidth (BW) of the Normalization filter Sharpening the risetime increases the frequency response but also the noise in the higher band This results in a distorted noise floor and a limit to your risetime beyond which there will be diminishing returns 0dB -3dB Log (Amplitude) 0dB -3dB Log (Amplitude) Noise Floor Log (Frequency) Basic System Response fc Basic System Response Noise Floor Normalized System Response Log (Frequency) Initial fc New fc Page 25 Summary of Good TDR Calibration The real advantage of Calibration (and more particularly Normalization) is that you can remove unwanted effects of cables and connectors leading up to your device. Magnitude and Phase (S-parameters) of thrus will show error increasing as a function of frequency. A good calibration at a reasonable risetime will show acceptable noise in the time domain. Checking Reciprocity is a way to verify a good calibration has been performed. Page 26 Accuracies of Time & Freq Domain PHY Meas 13
14 Measurement Accuracies: Reciprocity, Repeatability, Drift Using Reciprocity to Check Measurement Credibility Reciprocity with a TDR & Repeatability with a TDR & Drift with a TDR & Summary of Calibration & Measurement Accuracy Using Reciprocity to Assure Good Calibration Reciprocity is the constraint that for passive devices S12=S21. In measurements S12 virtually overlays S21 when a Thru path is measured. For TDR measurements the alignment is not as good. Be aware when exporting data that some tools may require a certain level of reciprocity (eg. HSPICE). to Port 1 Reciprocity on a Thru Adapter SE Measurement to Port 3 to Port 2 S13(Mag) = S31(Mag); S13(Phase) = S31(Phase) to Port 4 S24(Mag) = S42(Mag); S24(Phase) = S42(Phase) Page 28 Accuracies of Time & Freq Domain PHY Meas 14

It should be noted that these values are at the high end of the frequency range Disclaimer: Values appearing in this table are estimates and do not infer or imply any guarantee by Agilent Technologies as to actual results.

18 Measurement Comparisons Single Ended Comparisons of TDR & Measurements Balanced (Differential) Comparisons of TDR & Measurements 25 Ohm Mismatch Airline (3.5 mm connectors) Device Characteristics: Device that is traceable to NIST Insertion Loss Low loss with known variations Return Loss Known resonance pattern over wide dynamic range Page 36 Accuracies of Time & Freq Domain PHY Meas 18
19 25 Ohm Mismatch Airline: Time Domain Comparisons mvolts Very good agreement for length of the device (regardless of calibration) Normalization corrects for cable losses in RPC measurement Typically Ref. Plane Calibration will not show correct voltage or impedance values Normalization will need to be used. Since Ref. Plane Calibration does remove the DELAY of the cables (but not the loss) it can predict approximate device length TDR TDR with RPC Page Ohm Mismatch Airline: Insertion Loss Comparisons Comparison of - TDR measurements using different calibration methods Phase Magnitude Norm@20pS with correction RPC Only Mismatch causes this standing wave pattern TDR Norm@20pS TDR with RPC Page 38 Accuracies of Time & Freq Domain PHY Meas 19
20 25 Ohm Mismatch Airline: Time Domain Comparisons Impedance (ohms) Excellent agreement for length of the device Impedance discrepancy w/rpc Good agreement on length of device for low loss controlled impedance DUT 10% variance (2.5 Ohms) on impedance between and TDR with Reference Plane Calibration < 1 ohm discrepancy between and TDR calibrated at 30pS risetime TDR Norm@30pS TDR with RPC Page Ohm Mismatch Airline: Return Loss Comparisons Good correlation with Normalized TDR and across a wide dynamic range: Resonances (due to length of mismatch line) Magnitude for normalized measurements Resonance Magnitude TDR Norm@20pS TDR with RPC Page 40 Accuracies of Time & Freq Domain PHY Meas 20
21 Single Ended Summary With Normalization and correction the TDR can be an effective strategy for measuring impedance and obtaining frequency domain characteristics of moderate loss devices at frequencies below 10 GHz. Reference Plane Calibration without correction should only be used for estimating the length of a device and getting and idea of the response of the device. Page 41 BTL Example: Differential Return Loss Details ~ 1 db diff ~ 2 db diff 2-6 db diff First 3 divisions - look very good Mid 4 divisions - errors increase Top 3 divisions - getting worse Norm@20pS corrected Difference Page 42 Accuracies of Time & Freq Domain PHY Meas 21
22 BTL Example: Differential Insertion Loss Comparisons Start at 10GHz Norm Tr=20pS Norm Tr=30pS RPC weak midband Highband is poor for TDR Without additional correction Page 43 BTL Example: Differential Insertion Loss Details ~1 db diff ~2 db diff ~4-6 db diff First 3 divisions - look very good Mid 4 divisions - errors increase Top 3 divisions - getting worse Norm@20pS corrected Difference Page 44 Accuracies of Time & Freq Domain PHY Meas 22
23 Overall Summary The simplicity of the TDR is useful for lower data rates and for obtaining an intuitive understanding of signal integrity effects The Vector Network Analyzer provides more accuracy and repeatability than the Time Domain Reflectometer TDR normalization provides data closer to a than that derived from a TDR utilizing only RPC calibration Frequency domain data derived from TDR data is less accurate at higher frequencies This inaccuracy leads to error that can be interpreted as pessimistic insertion loss data and optimistic return loss data for frequencies greater then GHz. The accuracy provided by data will be required for data rates above 6.25 GB Page 45 Resources Websites Software Physical Layer Test System (PLTS) Advanced Design Software (ADS) Hardware N Vector Network Analyzer 86100C Time Domain Reflectometer PLTS Studio - Analysis Only Software N1930B-1NP networked license N1930B-1FP fixed license N1930B-1TP USB key license Physical Layer Test System (PLTS) Configurations Page 46 Accuracies of Time & Freq Domain PHY Meas 23
