Hi all, In researching the "state-of-the-art" for TDR measurement I ran across an interesting measurement that I would welcome comments on from the group. After the coupon has been probed, the impedance is only measured over a small portion (<25%) of the resultant waveform and then using an "average mean* technique for reporting the impedance values. In the opinion of the group - is this a valid technique? What are the reasons for only using a small portion of the waveform ? Does anyone know what an *average mean* value is?? Thanks in advance!!
