Hi, I am trying to get the impedance plot of a 0.1uF capacitor (using VNA), which has ESL and ESR associated with it. The frequeuncy response should be a V curve. From the book, Frequency Domain Characterization of PDN by Istvan Novak (ch-5) I realized that two port measurements are better (measuring Z12 or S12) when Z << 50 ohms. But for a single capacitor, how to get the V curve? If I connect it to measure as Z12, I can measure it correctly for frequencies where Z<<50 ohms only?
