System Description The Lightning D series microwave and millimeter-wave Vector Can be entered in time or in distance (when the Reference Plane: Network Analyzers encompass a wide range of high performance dielectric constant is entered). Automatic reference plane feature component and system test tools designed to address the growing adds the correct electrical length (delay) compensation.
