Keysight (Agilent) 909F Data Sheet

DC to 18 GHz

Description

Agilent Technologies’ 909F family
of precision low reflection loads are
intended for use as calibration
standards.

Tantalum nitride on sapphire thin­film technology is used for excep­tional long-term impedance stability.
To ensure the best possible wear
resistance characteristics, gold-plated
beryllium copper has been used for
the connector contacts.

Specifications

Specifications describe the instruments’ warranted per-

formance over the +15° to +35° C temperature range.
Supplemental characteristics as denoted by “typical”,
“nominal”, or “approximate” are provided as information
useful in applying the instrument, but are non-warranted
performance parameters.
