Focus Microwaves - Manual Tuners
Focus offers a complete range of manual tuners. The MMT series use the same RF technology and precision as a comparable automatic tuner.
They are available in octave and multi-octave bands between 400 MHz and 18 GHz and provide high VSWR at DUT reference plane with a high reliability.
For harmonic tuning requirements, the MMT series can be enhanced, referring to as option –H2 and –H23, using a similar concept as Focus’ harmonic rejection tuners (PHT).

More Product Information
- The IC Inline Controller provides steady and optimal current to lights from a small package when larger, more versatile discrete controllers are not necessary.
- The IC provides continuous-on and DC gating on/off control as well as 0-10 volt analog dimming.
- All ICS models employ reverse input polarity protection.
- A wash down version is provided with any light to which it is attached is also wash down.
- 0 – 100% Intensity Control with optional DCS-MP, purchased separately, will provide manual intensity control via an external potentiometer.
- Tiny “all-in-one” solution: no external control board needed
- Superior image quality: sub-micron lens movement with very low tilt. Now with higher dynamic stability
- Low voltage & power: 3.3 VDC input, zero power position hold
- Simple system integration: accepts high-level motion commands over standard serial interface (I2C or SPI)
- Flexible, production-ready system: compatible with M8 to M16 lenses and with typical image formats from 1/3” to 1/1.8”
- Lowest cost, fastest time to market: Fully-engineered “plug and play” solution
- The LL137 Series provides a focused line of illumination in a passively cooled design.
- Provides a medium intensity level of 280kLux (working distance of 75mm)
- Pre-engineered for expandability in 6” (152mm) increments up to 96” (2.44m).
- Available intensity control provides illuminance adjustability for every 6″ increment via a 0 – 10v input
Note: If only looking for white illumination, our LL167 Series provides a 74% brighter beam in a similar package.

- The I3 and I3S Inline Controllers provide overdrive strobe and continuous operation to lights from a small package when larger, more versatile external controllers are not necessary.
- Switching between continuous-on, gating on/off and strobe overdrive is seamless. The I3 and I3S employ Ai’s exclusive Adaptive OverdriveTM that optimizes strobe power regardless of input Pulse Width.
- The I3 is a default-on device on power-up, whereas the I3S is a default-off device, requiring a trigger to illuminate.
- All ICS models employ reverse input polarity protection.
- Provides continuous-on and DC gating on/off control as well as 0-10 volt analog dimming. 30 uSec response time.
- A wash down version of all ICS drivers is provided automatically with any wash down light to which it is attached.
- 0 – 100% Intensity Control with optional DCS-MP, purchased separately, will provide manual intensity control via an external potentiometer.
Non-linear measurement data is often used to create a behavioral model for high frequency components. Formulations of these models have been defined in terms of traveling waves, with a desire to represent nonlinear behavior of high frequency transistors through a direct extension from linear s-parameters.
The Mesuro model portfolio is comprised of two variations of a behavioral model – each targeted at a particular end use – Cardiff Model Lite (CML), where the desired output is a local model, and Cardiff Model+ (CM+), which incorporates higher order mixing terms allowing a single model to fit over a range of impedance space.

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.
