Since
1988, Focus Microwaves has assisted designers
of power and low-noise amplifiers in accelerating their
design cycle and improving their products by providing
accurate Load Pull and Noise measurement systems. Responding
to our customers demands helped us to be at the
forefront of innovation, having introduced almost all
new products and applications in this field. Our expertise
is proven by our record, having installed over 600 complete
systems using 1300 automatic tuners in 4 continents.
We offer standard and customized solutions for R&D
and production testing from 30 MHz to 110 GHz, as both
stand-alone hardware and fully-integrated systems. Fields
of use include:
- Noise parameter testing
- Nonlinear Load Pull measurements
- Harmonic Load Pull measurements
- DC and S-parameter measurements and TRL calibrations
Our product line includes:
- Turn-key Load Pull and Noise Measurement systems
- Wideband automatic tuners: 0.03 65 GHz coaxial
& 26.5 110 GHz waveguide
- High power and high VSWR tuners
- Harmonic Rejection tuners
- Vibration-free tuners
- Intelligent autonomous TCP/IP tuners (iTuners)
- On-wafer solutions including vibration-free probe
stations and prematch bend-lines
- TRL calibration kits for Vector Network Analyzers
(VNA)
- Microstrip and coaxial test fixtures for high power
transistors
- Manual wideband and harmonic tuners
- Device characterization and graphic data processing

Focus
Tuner Families
Focus tuners can be computer controlled either via
USB or TCP/IP (iTuner) interface. All older models,
controlled via ISA or PCI cards from the PC can be
upgraded to USB or TCP/IP on request.
iTuner is a stand-alone tuner concept; it contains
its own micro-processor, firmware, memory and calibration
files. It can tune to an impedance and de-embed to
DUT reference plane; it can execute pre-programmed
tuning sessions; it understands TCP/IP transmitted
high level ASCII commands (MOVE, INIT, TUNETO and
more). iTuners work with LabView©, Vee©,
Visual Basic user designed software. All Focus tuner
families below are available either as USB or as iTuners.

|
| CCMT Computer Controlled
Microwave Tuner; cover 0.1 to 65GHz in coaxial
and 26.5 to 110GHz in waveguide; CCMT tuners use
one or two probes to cover various frequency bands;
CCMT are wideband fundamental frequency tuners. |

|
| iLFT-01004 40-100 MHz |
|
| PMT
Pre-Matching Tuner; cover 0.4 to 18GHz; use two
independent probes and allow highest VSWR between
100:1 and 250:1 in a certain area of the Smith
Chart, depending on the frequency. |
|
| iCCMT-208-SP 0.8-2.0 GHz Synchronized Prematch |
|
| iCCMT-615-SP 1.5-6.0 GHz Synchronized Prematch |
|
| CCMT-SP
Synchronized Pre-matching Tuner; cover 0.8-50GHz;
use two probes that move simultaneously horizontally
and vertically creating similar VSWR as PMT's,
but over the whole area of the Smith Chart. The
distance between the probes can be adusted manually
to increase bandwidth. |
|
| MPT
Multi-Purpose Tuner; cover 0.3 to 50GHz; use three
independent wideband probes; can be used as three
harmonic tuner (amplitude and phase), as ultra
stable fundamental tuner and as high VSWR pre-matching
tuner. |
