Maury MW - VNA Calibration Standard - Open Circuit Termination Series
- Calibration-grade metrology standards
- Used for VNA calibration and/or calibration validation
Shielded, coaxial opens are used in the calibration of vector network analyzers to provide a nominal 180° phase offset from a compatible reference short over a wide range of frequencies. At these frequencies, open circuit terminations are inherently imperfect. Shielding the open essentially eliminates radiation loss, but creates a residual frequency-sensitive capacitance. An accurate knowledge of the open’s effective capacitance is essential to an accurate calibration of the analyzer. Maury opens are characterized for effective capacitance versus frequency by means of a fourth order polynomial curve fit, and the nominal capacitance coefficients are provided with each unit.

- High ENR
- Wide frequency range
- Custom frequencies available
The NC3600 Series coaxial noise sources are an excellent choice for applications requiring high ENR, such as ATE, radiometer, and radar systems.
An SMA male connector is standard for the RF output and feed thrus for bias input. SMA female is an option. Custom frequencies and flatness available. Contact the factory with your request.
- Complete bias circuits
- Requires no external components
- Optimizations available for frequency range and output levels
The NC520 low voltage (surface mount) noise module is an economic solution for built-in test requirements. It contains complete bias circuits and require no external components.
The surface mount package is suitable for mounting on microstrip. The modules produce extremely flat output power versus frequency characteristic that is insensitive to temperature and voltage variations.
Typical applications for the NC520 module includes built-in test equipment (bite), signal strength meters for cellular, pcs, catv, calibrators, spectrum analyzers, radar warning receivers (rwr), and dither A/D quantization error. Maury can optimize frequency range and output levels for specific applications.
Not all amplifiers are created equal, so how can you be certain that an amplifier will work for your needs? You deserve to be confident that the amplifiers used with your test-and measurement lab benches will meet the requirements of your specific applications, are reliable, and are equally well-supported pre-and post-sale. When it comes to application expertise, reliability and support, there is no company that does it better than Maury.

Maury offers coaxial and waveguide VNA calibration kits.
Coaxial calibration kits are offered in Polynomial SOLT, Characterized Device (CD) SOLT, and TRL, depending on the connector series. Where available, CD kits improve calibration accuracy when compared to SOLT kits based on polynomial definitions as each calibration kit is provided with individually characterized short, open and fixed load standards, whose S-parameters can be loaded into commercial VNAs directly or when used with Maury’s Insight™ software platform. When combined with Insight™, users will be able to quantify the uncertainty contribution of their calibration kit to their overall measurements. CD cal kits result in TRL-like accuracy with fixed-load SOLT ease-of-use.
