Rn
S for S-parameters
DB for

in degrees
MA for
linear
magnitude and
angle
in degrees
RI for real and imaginary pair
the reference impedance in ohms for the analyzer making the measurement
(R 50 or R 75)
The “format” above is selected by the current selection under the FORMAT menu. lb select the
DB format, the FORMAT must be LOG MAG. For MA, the FORMAT must be LIN MAG, and
