More Product Information
Focus Microwaves' Harmonic Tuners are engineered to enable precise control of impedance at the fundamental and harmonic frequencies (typically f₀, 2f₀, and 3f₀), making them essential for nonlinear device characterization and power amplifier design.
These tuners feature multiple cascaded probes within a single tuner body, allowing independent or simultaneous tuning at multiple frequencies. Their robust design ensures high tuning accuracy, minimal insertion loss, and excellent repeatability across a broad frequency range. Harmonic tuners are the ideal solution for advanced Load Pull measurements where harmonic control is critical.

Calibrating tuners for Network Analyzers presents challenges due to high reflections and low losses, affecting S-parameter measurements. At Focus Microwaves, we advocate for TRL (Thru-Reflect-Line) calibration as essential for precise results, unlike the less reliable SOLT and ECal methods. Our comprehensive TRL calibration kits cover 0.3 to 110 GHz and support connector types including 7/16, N, APC-7, 3.5mm, 2.9mm, 2.4mm, 1.9mm, WR-15, and WR-10. Compatible with all commercial network analyzers, these kits ensure reliability and accuracy, crucial for dependable VNA measurements.
The automotive industry is a sector frequently on the cusp of transformation. Fast-paced industry shifts span technology innovations, regulatory standards, green initiatives, and customer expectations, influencing manufacturers’ testing needs, growth objectives, and overall business strategies. Companies striving for a competitive edge focus on sustainable practices, regulatory compliance, and innovation in Electric Vehicles (EVs), alternative fuels, and autonomous driving systems. This positions the automotive industry in vital need of testing facilities that are future-proofed for rapid and ongoing transformation.
Focus Microwaves introduces a cutting-edge noise measurement system comprising three integral components: the Input Noise Module (INM), Output Noise Module (ONM), and Noise Module Controller (NMC). This system extracts precise noise parameters, offering rapid, stable measurements and optimized performance with dedicated software for calibration and analysis.

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.
