Maury MW - VNA Calibration Standard - Short Circuit Termination Series
- Calibration-grade metrology standards
- Used for VNA calibration and/or calibration validation
Fixed flush and fixed offset short circuit terminations (shorts) are used to establish reference planes in transmission systems and as key elements in the calibration of vector network analyzers (VNAs). Offset shorts can be used for banded calibrations of VNA. Those with the longest offset are often used to evaluate the calibration effectiveness of a VNA by measuring the effective source match after calibration.

More Product Information
-
Ease of use – Less experienced operators can perform an RF calibration up to 500 GHz by simply pushing a button. This reduces the need of experienced users full time on each system.
-
Reduced Soak Time – The system will automatically re-align the probes to the pads if they drift from alignment. This reduces test time and increases throughput.
-
Unattended Use – Measurements can be left running over night or the weekend, testing all devices on the wafer, and at different temperatures without the need of an operator.
-
Calibration Monitor and Re-calibration – System will continuously monitor calibration drift, and automatically re-calibrate the system should the drift exceed a predefined limit.
20 ppm calibrator of DC process signals designed for calibration of evaluation units and process multimeters under demanding industrial conditions.
- 20 ppm accuracy
- 13°C - 33°C reference temp. range
- 100 V @ 25 mA output capacity
- 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.
