Interactive Video: Automatic Fixture Removal Plug-in

Interact with Copper Mountain Technologies Automatic Fixture Removal Plug-in for the VNA software to simplify removing the effects of fixtures from component measurements.

Automatic Fixture Removal (AFR) is an intuitive software plug-in that is used to accurately measure hard to access devices, such as SMD sized components mounted on a fixture by de-embedding the fixture effects. The AFR VNA software plug-in enables the measurement of a wide range of components through comprehensive methods tailored to specific fixture properties. This demo will provide a feel for the intuitive AFR software, which moves the calibration plane towards hard to access DUTs and guides the de-embedding process using either time-gating, filtering, or bisect methods on a 2-port 2xThru or 1xReflect fixture. These methods provide the user with better measurement accuracy and reliability based on the components being tested. The AFR software plug-in is easy to use and is compatible with all CMT 2- and 4-port Cobalt series VNAs up to 20 GHz and Compact series two-port, two-path VNAs up to 44 GHz.
