This article presents a simple yet effective method to roll your own TDR using any square wave source, any scope, and an affordable power splitter. This low-cost approach offers a practical and accessible solution for characterizing transmission lines in educational or resource-constrained lab environments. 

Having determined the amount of CMRR needed for 2-port measurement in the previous installment of this blog, Steve Sandler and  Benjamin Dannan return with a demonstration of how to create a DUT and make a 40 µΩ impedance measurement with the 2-port probe.

In this blog, Steve Sandler and Benjamin Dannan demonstrate how to determine how much CMRR is needed when introducing a ground loop isolator to correct the error in a 2-port measurement. 

Signal integrity engineers almost always have to work with S-parameters. If you have not had to work with them yet, then chances are you will sometime in your career. As speed moves up in the double-digit GB/s regime, many industry standards are moving to serial link-based architectures and are using frequency domain compliance limits based on S-parameter measurements.
