Focus Microwaves - RF Test Fixtures DC-26 GHz
Focus Microwaves provides modular microstrip, high-power, and ultra-low-loss coaxial fixtures designed for load pull testing of packaged transistors. Equipped with TRL calibration standards, these fixtures support transistor packages from under 0.1” to 1” wide. Special features include decade-wide Klopfenstein transformers (Fmax:Fmin ~10:1), water- and air-cooling options, and on-substrate bias networks. Microstrip fixtures (PTJ-x*) offer 50Ω lines, λ/4 or taper transformers, harmonic traps, and DC bias networks, while Minimum Loss coaxial Test Fixtures (MLTF-x*) feature low insertion loss (< 0.03 dB at 2 GHz) with connectors including 7mm, N, and 7/16, spanning up to 18 GHz. Both types support water cooling for RF power up to several hundred Watts.

More Product Information
The VS1510 is a video & data recorder/server packaged in a rugged compact chassis (4.92” x 5.75” x 7.28 ” / 9.9 lb), for recording on a Removable Memory Module (RMM).
Recorded data can be replayed in a standard PC/Windows® environment, using specific or COTS mission debrief solutions for post mission analysis.
In addition, typically for ISR applications, data can be replayed while recording on board. The ENERTEC™ mission data processing and distribution units offer cost-effective and dependable solutions for collecting, processing, storing, utilizing, and sharing field and mission data.
These units are designed for both manned and unmanned ground, air, and sea vehicles. They undergo rigorous validation and formal qualification testing, conforming to established standards such as DO-160 and MIL-STD-810.
Our EuroBrite™ lineup provides industry leading technology with value pricing for an unmatched performance / price ratio:
- Complete built-in control for continuous and strobe modes.
- Adaptive Power™, a feature of the EuroBrite™ lighting controller, utilizes an onboard thermistor to maximize light output in continuous mode.
- Adaptive Overdrive,™ another feature of the EuroBrite™ lighting controller, provides a maximal output pulse in strobe mode regardless of the exposure period.
- IP67 sealed enclosure suitable for washdown environments.
- Rugged construction that has been tested to withstand over 1000lb.
- Industrial grade LEDs providing high-intensity illumination of 45klux (working distance of 200mm).
- Daisy chain up to 4 for a combined length of 48”.
Resistance decade box designed for RTD and other resistance-based sensors' simulation. 0.1°C accuracy and 5W load capacity.

The Focus Compact Model (FCM) utility is a streamlined software package designed to be used with Focus’ AURIGA high-end Pulsed-IV system
The Broadband sleeve antenna was developed to efficiently perform proximity radiation immunity testing.
The international standards ISO11451-3/ISO11452-9 stipulate proximity radiation immunity testing methods that assume electromagnetic interference when wireless transmitters such as smartphones and Wi-Fi devices are placed in close proximity to other electronic devices.
This product is a small, lightweight, high-gain antenna used in these standards that covers a wide bandwidth and has good radiation characteristics. Since it can be used in the wide band from 5GHz to 8GHz, it can be used to perform proximity radiation immunity testing assuming wireless LAN in the 6GHz band (up to 7.125GHz).
