The Picotest UC10 3.5mm Universal 6-Way Calibrator enables the highest accuracy 1- and 2-port measurements for the OMICRON Lab Bode 100 and Bode 500, as well as supporting calibration for other traditional VNAs.
- Enables accurate passive component measurement
- Results accurate to several pH (<10pH) for Bode 100/500 VNA
- Works with all VNAs including Keysight E5061B, Rohde & Schwarz ZNL/ZNB, and Copper Mountain S Series
- Supports essential calibration accuracy when performing component characterization tests
- S parameter and Z (impedance) calibration
- Simultaneous calibration and de-embedding using matching board mounts
- Supports 1-port reflection and 2-port shunt through measurements
- Stable, accurate, and repeatable measurements – Built on precision controlled dielectric material, with multiple controlled parameters
- The most accurate component measurement solution for OMICRON Lab Bode 100 and 500 users
Key Features
- Allows accurate measurement without a calibration kit using matched component mounting boards.
- Accurate calibration standard for the Bode 100 and Bode 500 VNA 2-port shunt through impedance testing
- Enables accurate phase response required for SPICE Modeling features
- Supports S/Z domain calibration for use with all VNAs
- Includes 1-Port SHORT, OPEN, and LOAD
- Includes THROUGH (used also for 2-port OPEN)
- Includes 2-Port ISO-SHORT (for uOhm and fH impedance floor)
- Includes 2-Port MATCH
- (Typical) Data-based calibration file (aka Cal-Kit) for traditional VNA calibration
- DC-3 GHz Frequency Range *. Supports full frequency range of Bode 100/500.
- The Calibrator board supports a wide variety of part sizes (0201 – 7343) using our matching mounts. Custom board sizes are available for order.
* based on a data based cal-kit, S-parameter data is available for the UC10.
