Abstract :
Impedance mismatches in the standard transmission line pulsed (TLP) measurement system will severely distort the pulsed waveform, but use of matched microwave attenuating filters can transform the setup into a 50-Omega TLP system which produces near-ideal waveforms. In addition, passive, lossless low-pass filters can be used to vary the rise time of the pulse. Detailed measurement and microwave simulation results are provided.
