The purpose of electrical representation or equivalent circuit of HEMT or any transistor in the form of lumped circuit elements is to implement and simulate its static and RF behaviour in CAD tools. This technique is particularly useful and often directly correlated to physical entities within the device structure, as illustrated below.
The illustration below is a small signal topology composed of a total of 16 linear components.

This is divided into two parts:
i) The Intrinsic part where the region under the gate (modulation occurs here) represented with a set of 8 intrinsic elements (RGD, Ri, CGS, CGD, CDS, GM, RDS, Τ).
ii) The Extrinsic part represented with a set of 8 extrinsic elements (RG, RD, RS, LG, LD, LS, CPG, CPD). These elements need to be extracted for small signal model implementation. The extraction process will be discussed in the following section.

From 100MHz to 120GHz we use the slide screw technique in which a reflective probe is inserted into a low loss slotted transmission line.
-
For frequencies from 10MHz to 170MHz we use a lumped element technology, whereby variable capacitors are connected with optimized lengths of coaxial cable. To view our Low Frequency Tuners, Click Here!

The low frequency tuners are a unique product technology using MPT algorithms for low frequency wideband tuning. Three or more cascaded tuning sections use series transmission cables and parallel rotary capacitors.
The length of the cables and number of tuning sections are optimized for maximum tuning range over a given bandwidth. HLFT tuners use 6 tuning sections allowing second harmonic frequency tuning.

Linea Lite makes line scan more accessible than ever. Designed with performance in mind, this camera offers superior color fidelity with 2k to 4k resolution and line rates from 12.5 to 50 kHz, with a GigE Vision® interface.

Focus Microwaves
Focus Microwaves is a pioneering engineering company, built around the innovations of its founder Dr. Christos Tsironis who developed his first manual tuner in 1973 and is the inventor of most existing electro-mechanical tuner families. The success of Focus is based on the engineering and manufacturing skills of its highly motivated and experienced team of engineers and technicians, who have been trained and encouraged to develop new technologies. In addition, listening to our customers needs and insights helps us discover and develop new and measurement methods on an ongoing basis, relentlessly pushing the limits of what is possible.
From humble beginnings in 1988, Focus has become the main supplier of advanced Load Pull and Noise Tuner Systems. Our mission is to provide effective, reliable and innovative solutions for non-50 Ohm testing (Noise and Load Pull) of RF microwave transistors, thus enabling our customers to compete in the marketplace with better designs and to advance the understanding and knowledge of the field.
