Hi,
NRF52 DK has an RF switch which can be used for looking into the Nordic and observe the impedance using a VNA. I observed the same impedance in RX, TX and power off so I used power off for these experiments.
Using my VNA it looks like the impedance is 10 + 8j. Which is very similar to a 50ohm source impedance followed by 1pF shunt C and 4nH series L... Is the impedance looking in to Nordic supposed to be 50ohms or 10+8j?
Maybe I have a calibration issue with my VNA. I have to calibrate-out the VNA-to-switch cable and the RF switch, both Murata (MM8130-2600RA2 and MXHS83QE3000) so we built a custom calibration board (open/short/50ohm). But now there is a real issue setting up this "custom calibration kit" on my VNA, I don't know what parameters to plug in for offset delay and offset loss. I tried setting them to negligable values but Nordic still doesn't look like 50ohms.
Can you recommend a calibration flow? What is the Nordic impedance? Do calibration kits exist for these Murata switches?
Thanks so much!
