Mixed Mode Scattering Parameters
Mixed mode scattering parameters are used to characterize differential circuits. For baluns, this means that the 0° and 180° ports become a single differential port and the common port remains common port. The two-port s-parameters of the balun are then characterized based on differential (d), common mode (c), or single-ended (s) signals. For example: Sds12 is the differential output response given a single ended input.
