Passive components
RF Attenuators
Inductors
- Measure inductance and capacitiance values with VNA: 3 methods depending on impedance
- Measure inductor saturation current
- Transformer saturation current can also be measured by applying DC-current to the primary winding, in series with an HF-decoupling inductor (many times the value of the inductor you want to measure and it should also have many times the saturation current). Then you can connect an L-meter to the secondary winding and start measuring.
Capacitors
- Measure capacitance value with DC-offset : Ceramic Capacitor with DC bias value measurement. LCR Meter
