Abstract
Most of today´s production programs do not use automatic tests for RF pins to ensure proper coaxial cable interfacing, matching functionality and board to device contact. This paper will describe a test technique that uses s-parameter measurements and time domain reflectometry (TDR) to quickly locate interface issues
