To analyze the random noise of the injected wave, which can be mapped to the noise of the controlled reflection coefficient, we employ Jacobian sensitivity functions between the baseband signal and the RF one. First, the baseband integrated rms noise of the up-converter is evaluated, and then the upconverted noise is determined via the derived transfer function. Finally, experimental results to validate the uncertainty control bound of the synthesized reflection coefficients are presented, highlighting a full coverage of the measured reflection coefficients.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><!-- close content main div --><\/div><\/div><div id='av_section_3'  class='avia-section av-lw6krndj-efa2537de38bb0c7b050183ec57b7675 main_color avia-section-default avia-no-shadow  avia-builder-el-23  el_after_av_section  el_before_av_section  avia-bg-style-scroll  container_wrap sidebar_right'  ><div class='container av-section-cont-open' ><div class='template-page content  av-content-small alpha units'><div class='post-entry post-entry-type-page post-entry-4741'><div class='entry-content-wrapper clearfix'>\n<div class='flex_column av-j8985h-75af28e1b2fc05e407358c2c5d71f3f7 av_one_third  avia-builder-el-24  el_before_av_two_third  avia-builder-el-first  first flex_column_div '   ><div  class='avia-testimonial-wrapper av-lw6kqedo-9fcb7ad0f68ff9ffc0601428a17d759f avia-grid-testimonials avia-grid-2-testimonials avia_animate_when_almost_visible '  data-autoplay='1'  data-interval='5'  data-animation='fade'  data-hoverpause='1' >\n<section class ='avia-testimonial-row'><div class='avia-testimonial av-lw6kqcto-afcc3da9d0db2b2e5c2931ec10f1f9ac avia-testimonial-row-1 avia-first-testimonial flex_column no_margin av_one_half'><div class='avia-testimonial_inner'  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia-testimonial-image'  itemprop=\"image\" ><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"180\" height=\"180\" src=\"https:\/\/futurecom.unicas.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Hong-Ju-Lin-photo-180x180.png\" class=\"attachment-square size-square\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/futurecom.unicas.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Hong-Ju-Lin-photo-180x180.png 180w, https:\/\/futurecom.unicas.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Hong-Ju-Lin-photo-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/futurecom.unicas.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Hong-Ju-Lin-photo-36x36.png 36w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 180px) 100vw, 180px\" \/><\/div><div class='avia-testimonial-content '><div class='avia-testimonial-markup-entry-content'  itemprop=\"text\" ><\/div><\/div><div class='avia-testimonial-meta'><div class='avia-testimonial-arrow-wrap'><div class='avia-arrow'><\/div><\/div><div class='avia-testimonial-meta-mini'  itemprop=\"author\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Person\" ><strong  class='avia-testimonial-name'  itemprop=\"name\" >Hung-Ju Lin<\/strong><span  class='avia-testimonial-subtitle '  itemprop=\"jobTitle\" >METAS, Switzerland<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div class='flex_column av-1rm1xh-2637982e53cce1ee24002cf911cad26a av_two_third  avia-builder-el-26  el_after_av_one_third  avia-builder-el-last  flex_column_div '   ><p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-lw6kqru9-9fd0e2228e8d3604e00d9782b87e2636\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-lw6kqru9-9fd0e2228e8d3604e00d9782b87e2636{\npadding-bottom:10px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-lw6kqru9-9fd0e2228e8d3604e00d9782b87e2636 av-special-heading-h3  avia-builder-el-27  el_before_av_textblock  avia-builder-el-first  '><h3 class='av-special-heading-tag '  itemprop=\"headline\"  >A novel Coaxial On-wafer Probe: Manufacturing and relevant Performance Tests<\/h3><div class='special-heading-border'><div class='special-heading-inner-border'><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-lw6kr73o-c430f81d404174db05287f10e19d18f7 '  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock '  itemprop=\"text\" ><div class=\"header--prose-left prose--base\">\n<p>Coaxial structures are particularly beneficial for transmitting broadband signals. Compared to open transmission line structures the shielding against the surrounding environment is favorable. Shielding will limit stray fields and parasitic effects. In addition, the pitch size of RF probes used for on-wafer measurements scales inversely with the operating frequencies to avoid unwanted effects.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mt-6\" data-headlessui-state=\"open\">\n<div class=\"header--prose-left prose--base\">\n<p>In digital communication the trends towards higher frequencies in support of higher data rates and miniaturization for efficiency and compactness ask for new robust designs of small pitch size measurement capabilities with optimal shielding properties reaching beyond currently established industry standards. This talk will be focused on a novel coaxial probe design with small pitch size, its fabrication, and the initial electrical resistance tests relevant for on-wafer probing. The different manufacturing steps to realize the goal of a coaxially shielded probe with 50 \u00b5m pitch size, suitable for on-wafer measurements, are explained. The fabrication process starts from pulling glass capillaries with a metal wire inside to achieve a coaxial structure and ends with an advanced micro-machining technique, plasma focused ion beam (PFIB) to shape the desired high precision ground-signal-ground structure at the probe head. Preliminary tests of the electrical resistivity and the use of the probes in high-frequency Short-Open-Load (SOL) calibrations show their potential for future on-wafer probing and other metrology applications.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><!-- close content main div --><\/div><\/div><div id='av_section_4'  class='avia-section av-fyt1n9-9498a8a0dbb7c659180f19775927294b alternate_color avia-section-default avia-no-shadow  avia-builder-el-29  el_after_av_section  el_before_av_section  avia-bg-style-scroll  container_wrap sidebar_right'  ><div class='container av-section-cont-open' ><div class='template-page content  av-content-small alpha units'><div class='post-entry post-entry-type-page post-entry-4741'><div class='entry-content-wrapper clearfix'>\n<div class='flex_column av-e90ohh-3d1b97c6cf1f230e8f3be95647adcf4c av_one_third  avia-builder-el-30  el_before_av_three_fifth  avia-builder-el-first  first flex_column_div '   ><div  class='avia-testimonial-wrapper av-lw6kkfur-6631046cf858a4fad15a779503efa1f7 avia-grid-testimonials avia-grid-2-testimonials avia_animate_when_almost_visible '  data-autoplay='1'  data-interval='5'  data-animation='fade'  data-hoverpause='1' >\n<section class ='avia-testimonial-row'><div class='avia-testimonial av-lw6kkd59-d330b76f8129ec1b1e08c0939f121c73 avia-testimonial-row-1 avia-first-testimonial flex_column no_margin av_one_half'><div class='avia-testimonial_inner'  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia-testimonial-image'  itemprop=\"image\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"138\" height=\"171\" src=\"https:\/\/futurecom.unicas.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Allal-photo.png\" class=\"attachment-square size-square\" alt=\"\" \/><\/div><div class='avia-testimonial-content '><div class='avia-testimonial-markup-entry-content'  itemprop=\"text\" ><\/div><\/div><div class='avia-testimonial-meta'><div class='avia-testimonial-arrow-wrap'><div class='avia-arrow'><\/div><\/div><div class='avia-testimonial-meta-mini'  itemprop=\"author\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Person\" ><strong  class='avia-testimonial-name'  itemprop=\"name\" >Djamel Allal<\/strong><span  class='avia-testimonial-subtitle '  itemprop=\"jobTitle\" >Laboratoire National de M\u00e9trologie et d\u2019Essais, France<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div class='flex_column av-cdehb9-8f27092428fe12841b12ebf29340488e av_three_fifth  avia-builder-el-32  el_after_av_one_third  avia-builder-el-last  flex_column_div '   ><p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-lw6kj1du-e4a5c2410d9393771b159769c38cd9c3\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-lw6kj1du-e4a5c2410d9393771b159769c38cd9c3{\npadding-bottom:10px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-lw6kj1du-e4a5c2410d9393771b159769c38cd9c3 av-special-heading-h3  avia-builder-el-33  el_before_av_textblock  avia-builder-el-first  '><h3 class='av-special-heading-tag '  itemprop=\"headline\"  >Developing and characterizing on-wafer reference structures for signal Integrity metrology at the chip level<\/h3><div class='special-heading-border'><div class='special-heading-inner-border'><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-lw6kjkcy-6a92f99a0c3464b8b7828304da96abb6 '  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock '  itemprop=\"text\" ><div class=\"header--prose-left prose--base\">\n<p>This presentation covers the design, fabrication and analysis of on-wafer test structures developed with a view to establishing a traceable methodology for SI characterization of FPGA circuits.
