Focus Microwaves Inc

General information

Focus Microwaves Group comprises Focus Microwaves Inc., Mesuro Ltd. and Auriga PIV Tech Inc. They are all Engineering and Manufacturing Corporations based in Montreal, Quebec (Canada), Cardiff, Wales (UK) and Merrimack, New Hampshire (USA).

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 skill of its highly motivated and experienced team of technicians and engineers, who have been trained and encouraged to develop new technologies as well as listen to and support our customers.

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 and microwave transistors, thus enabling our customers to compete in the marketplace with better designs and to advance the understanding and knowledge of the field.

We offer standard and customized solutions for R&D and production testing as stand-alone hardware and fully-integrated systems:

■ Passive and active load pull (CW and pulsed)
■ Harmonic, scalar, vector and time domain load pull
■ Wideband noise parameter measurements
■ On-wafer turn-key solutions including vibration-free probe
stations and pre-matching bend-lines
■ DC, Pulsed IV, S-parameter measurements using 3T and TRL
calibrations
■ High precision and modular Pulsed-IV systems
■ Active load pull, waveform engineering
■ High speed wideband load pull
■ Nonlinear transistor models
■ Measurement services
