Focus recommends TRL Calibration Kits for applications such as load pull & noise parameters. Due to high reflection and low loss, tuner S-parameter measurements represent a challenge for VNA’s, because of error term determination and coupler directivity. Long experience has taught us not to rely on other calibration techniques than TRL (Thru-Reflect-Line). The popular SOLT technique is conditionally useable, but not guaranteed, up to 4GHz. The much convenient ECal method has provided questionable and inconsistent results. Our Customers are advised to be very careful with VNA calibrations, because the whole measured data depends on that.
Because of this, and to save our customers time and doubt, Focus has developed and offers a set of precise and reliable TRL calibration kits from 0.03 to 110 GHz with the following connector types: 7/16, N, APC-7, 3.5mm, 2.9mm, 2.4mm, 1.85mm, WR-15, WR-10. Our calibration kits are compatible with all commercial network analyzers.

EMC test equipment to evaluate the resistibility of electronic devices and components when energy charged on a human body or object is discharged to the electronic devices and components. NoiseKen brand ESD simulator is available to see malfunctions or function declines of electronic equipment for appropriate evaluations compliant with IEC61000-4-2 Ed.2 Test Standard & ISO 10605 ed.2 standards.
The ESS-S3011A features a function which enables the user to pre-program test settings to minimize setup errors as well as having the unit be incorporated into a remote or autonomous testing setup. Another feature that sets apart NoiseKen ESD guns to that of competitors is the discharging gun separation design which helps achieve the lightweight.
For conventional ESD guns, that have generators that are inseparable from the gun, you may experience having to replace the whole unit even only when certain parts of the unit are broken. However, with the NoiseKen’s separation design, replacement parts can be minimized to lower the running cost.
