LXI™-Certified 3.5mm Automated Tuners

MT983 Series - 2.0 to 26.5 GHz

Applications & Benefits Overview

The MT983BL01 LXI™ controlled automated tuners are optimized for a broad class of in-fixture and on-waver applications requiring flexibility, broad frequency coverage and ease of use. Based on Maury's proven non-contacting probe technology, these high-performance tuners evolve beyond outdated contacting probe technology to deliver high VSWR with superb accuracy and reliability.

An integral component of Maury Device Characterization Solutions, these TCP/IP and USB-interfaced automated tuners are controlled using one of four Maury Software Solutions; Maury's MT930 series IVCAD Advanced Measurement and Modeling Software; Maury's Device Characterization Software suite (ATS version 5 or later); direct ASCII command-and-control, or Maury's DLL environment.

With a tuning resolution in excess of a million impedance points and accuracy better than -40 dB over the entire Smith chart, Maury automated tuners give you the device characterization answers and critical accuracy you need to make engineering decisions with confidence. Typical applications includeload-pull for CW and pulsed or modulated C-band, X-band, Ku-band, K-band design.

The MT983 series tuner is ideal for load pull, harmonic load pull, hybrid active load pull and all automated tuner applications.
