| POL | 5V USB input to 3.3V 2.8MHz switching regulator |
| REF03 | 2.5V low noise voltage reference |
| OPAMP | 245MHz Bandwidth unity gain opamp buffer |
| LDO | LD1086 voltage regulator 5V USB input to 3.3V output |
| CLOCKS/BUFFERS | 10MHz and 125MHz clocks |
| CALIBRATION | Short-Open-Load and 1 Ohm calibration ports |
| PLANES & CAPS | Parallel tantalum and ceramic capacitor on a small PCB plane |
| MICROSTRIPS | 50O microstrips with precision aberrations - one with a ground void |
