Abstract :
We investigate the sensitivity of SOLT and LRRM on wafer calibrations to probe positioning. Calibration comparison derived error-bounds were calculated for data sets differing only by a single change in probe/standard overlap. The SOLT calibration was found to be significantly more sensitive to probe placement variations, consistent with theoretical predictions.
