Re: NanoVNA-F V3 from SysJoint firmware beep
Deepelec has not updated their firmware in several years and their architecture is not the same as your V3. Why not open the case and disable the beeper? Put some tape across the output port or cut

Re: READING L AN C VALUES USING THE NANOVNAs and the SMITH CHART
Any good hardware store may have them. Also a good electrical supply house. Likely, the chains will not have such items. We have an excellent "have everything" and then some hardware store in Boulder.

Nizar, Yes you need to use Enhanced response option for S21. It was created by DiSlord for these types of measurements.

Re: READING L AN C VALUES USING THE NANOVNAs and the SMITH CHART
Hi Roger I do not use enhanced response, indeed i dont use an unknownen function for me, i use SeeSi H4 SM NanoVNA + DiSlord 1.2.40 Firmware , Serial resistor with reasonnable 2cm legs only for 30Mhz

NanoVNA-F V3 from SysJoint firmware beep
Hi folks, I'm brand new here. I just got the NanoVNA-F V3 which is made by SysJoint. Like with my other VNAs (a cheap small NanoVNA-H & a LiteVNA 64) the first thing I looked for was the (custom)

Dave, Where did you find the very large alligator clip shown in the photos in the document? My usual sources aren't turning up anything big enough to bite a bnc connector. Just curious. Andy

Re: READING L AN C VALUES USING THE NANOVNAs and the SMITH CHART
Alligator clips are OK if you just want to get a rough idea of the impedance of the device you are measuring. The problem with them is you have an impedance discontinuity from the coax to the clips

Re: READING L AN C VALUES USING THE NANOVNAs and the SMITH CHART
Something wrong with your S11 plot. It should be much better than that. Here is a re-post of my previous plot. S11 is flat but is off by 3 to 4%. Note that S21 is much better estimate at low

Re: READING L AN C VALUES USING THE NANOVNAs and the SMITH CHART
An ideal test fixture would maintain a 50¦¸ impedance right to the device body. The Keysight high-frequency SMD fixtures come close to this ideal, the device interface center conductor is a disk,

Re: READING L AN C VALUES USING THE NANOVNAs and the SMITH CHART
Those leads account for about +j5 at 28 MHz. I'm giving the leads about 28 nH of inductance. The +j5 ohms is about 10 % of your measurement system impedance of 50 ¡À j 0 ohms. Dave - W?LEV

Re: READING L AN C VALUES USING THE NANOVNAs and the SMITH CHART
Nizar, The NanoVNA-H4 is only a one-way VNA so it does not calibrate for s22 and S12 and only does six point calibration. In order to get good S21 series measurements you need the source and load

Hello Dave, I agree with Luc. Everything I've read about Smith Charts says that ABOVE the horizontal (resistance) centerline is Inductive, and everything BELOW is capacitive. But I still have a lot to

I have used mine to measure the inductance of antenna load coils that I have made. I fabricated a test lead that is a coax that terminates in a pair of alligator clips. I clip the leads onto a panel
