This course demystifies the complexity of the Smith chart and demonstrates how a VNA can be used to characterize a paperclip on the Smith chart.
Learn:
Lesson 1 - Smith Chart Basics + VNA Paperclip Test
Introduce the Smith chart, a graphical tool used to analyze the reflection coefficient and impedance of a transmission line. The video shows how to use a VNA to plot a Smith chart and how to perform the paperclip test, a simple way to measure the reflection coefficient of a load. The video also discusses the benefits of using the Smith chart to analyze transmission lines.
