Interactively plot graphs of Scattering Parameters (S-Parameters) using the Touchstone® (SnP) files [1] and [2]. Upload the RF network data file with the extension ".snp" where n is the number of ports/interconnects in the network. For example, .s1p, .s2p, etc are valid file format extensions. Then select the plot output data format type, like decibel-angle, magnitude-angle, or real-imaginary. The Touchstone® file version 2 with the extension ".ts" is accepted but not tested.
Please Note: If you need only .snp file / S-Parameter file conversion into the table format (not graph plots) such as: CSV, spreadsheet, JSON, or HTML table format then use Touchstone file (SnP) converter .
Example image of the plot produced using the Touchstone® (SnP) Plotter is available below. Sample scattering parameter file for LNA - HMC8413LP2FE is from [3]. The generated scattering parameter plot can be then downloaded as interactive HTML format for offline post processing.
