GigaWave with Tektronix S-52 tunnel diode head (<25ps Tr)

Nice, what I would like to see the real time behavior, as 20..80% or 10..90% rise time changes over time :D

On a LeCroy easy to graph over time as rise f(t).

Better late than never.   Showing the output from the LiteVNA (low cost VNA).

Showing the risetime drift using the latest software with tracking  enabled.  The Tektronix pulser is very slow.  There is a tradeoff between the drift, amount of and how fast the data is collected and the repeatability.   I would imagine if this pulser had a faster pulse rate, I could collect more data and this measurement would tighten up.   

Still, less than 5ps over a span of 21 minutes.   Also they spec the scope for 40ps typical 80/20.   All of the measurements I have made fall below that.

Also shown after 50 minutes, it is starting to appear gaussian with less than 7ps.
