RF Glossary: Z | Terms Starting with Z

Z-Parameters (Impedance Parameters) — A matrix description of a network relating port voltages to port currents, where each parameter has units of impedance (ohms).

Zero-IF (Direct Conversion) — A receiver architecture that converts the RF signal directly to baseband without an intermediate frequency stage, reducing component count.
