October 2005 [Test & Measurement] Test Cables’ "Memory" Saves Component Stress Microwave test cables often lead a stressful life. The seemingly tranquil benchtop environment can harbor many hazards, including engineers and technicians who over-flex cable assemblies, over-torque their connectors, and cram cables into drawers. To withstand these stresses, test cables are manufactured for ruggedness, while maintaining low loss as well as good phase and amplitude stability. Unfortunately, some flexibility is often sacrificed when trying to build cables to meet these other... December 2003 [Test & Measurement] Cables Extend Test Range To 65 GHz Test environments impose two conflicting requirements on microwave cables that run between the instrumentation and the device under test (DUT). Flexible cables must withstand repeated twisting, bending, and general mishandling while also delivering... |
