* R and C in parallel
The measured phase angle of pure resistors should be 0°, with an impedance
that is independent of test frequency, whereas pure capacitors should report a
phase angle of -90°, with an impedance magnitude that varies inversely with
frequency. For comparison, most electrophysiology electrodes will have a phase
angle between -50° and -80°, depending on the electrode metal and coatings.
