So you have some device which has an input impedance and, possibly, an output impedance which is not 50-Ohms. You have your nano-VNA, miniVNA tiny or other measurement device that you want to use to make measurements on this device AND maintain the proper impedance match with the device.
But these measurement instruments have an input and output impedance of 50-Ohms which is not an impedance match to you device.
In this video I am going to present two ways you can approach this problem.
WAY#1: The "Mechanical Impedance Conversion" Method
WAY#2: The PAD Method
I will compare the results from these two methods.
