F Min, optimimum source reflection coefficient and noise resistance values are calculated values based on a set of measurements made at approximately 16 different impedances. Some data smoothing was applied to arrive at the presented data set. S-parameters were measured by Modelithics® on an Anritsu Lightning vector network analyzer over 0.1 to 18GHz using 350um pitch RF probes from GGB industries combined with customized thru-reflect-line (TRL) calibration standards.
