Testing RF Circuits with Pigtails and ultra miniature semi-rigid cable assemblies.

August 7, 2018 – 7:24 am

In Circuit RF Probing A good method for probing an RF circuit is to use small diameter semi-rigid cables, commonly referred to as Pigtails, to inject an input signal or sample an output signal. The typical configuration is with an SMA female connector on one end and a straight cut semi-rigid cable on the opposite end. P1dB can also produce trimmed read more »
