"The expert support team at Focus has come up with a viable solution for all of our immediate and long term needs"

Tomasz Wegrzynowicz

"In short, our application goal is to characterize high power LDMOS for cell phone base station amplifiers. Apparently, with Focus help we have improved our efficiency and design to market time. This successful integration was the direct result of the service and support we received from the Focus staff. Thanks!"

"We have used it at 8.4 and 32 GHz for amplifier design and troubleshooting... Focus' technical support is excellent… they even helped us in suggesting where we might find other necessary equipment."

Perry Malouf, Ph.D.
Laurel, MD

"The tuners have exhibited stellar measurement performance which is an essential element for accurate models and designs on III-V processes.
Focus gave us good customer support and worked with us over the phone.
Overall we have been very pleased with Focus' high caliper technical support over the years."

"I think that your pre-matching tuners are excellent pieces of hardware. They are robust, repeatable, and easy to use. The support that you provide is also very good. Some weeks ago I had a technical question about the implementation of your TRL calibration and you got back to me with the answer I was looking for almost immediately. That was top class."

Mikael Garcia, Ph.D.

"I believe that Focus Microwaves has contributed superior technology to the loadpull extraction field. Their interpolating tuner calibration permits significantly more tuner states to be realized over the competition. They were first to manufacture programmable harmonic tuners and they have recently developed a tuner capable of sub-1 ohm impedances using novel two slug tuners with reasonable sensitivity and repeatability. They also have authored numerous application notes on loadpull techniques."

"At Nitronex Corporation, we've been using load-pull systems manufactured by Focus Microwaves for over two years. We've now acquired two such systems and use them on a regular basis.
Starting with the pre-sales support, through installation and day-to-day use, we've found the staff at Focus Microwaves to be very friendly, responsive and competent. Technical issues many of which have been due to our own limited knowledge with the system, have been handled quickly and accurately. Both the hardware and the software have proven to be robust, despite the heavy usage the systems experience.
Overall, our experience with Focus Microwaves has been very positive and we look forward to continuing our relationship."

"I've been using Focus' PMT i-tuners for 1 year now and I find them extremely repeatable and reliable. They are very well engineered pieces of equipment with unmatched performance, only to be out done by the superb technical support and helpful staff at Focus Microwaves."

Thomas Landon
TriQuint Semiconductor, TX

"Focus' tuner itself generates reliable data with great accuracy, thumbs up on their software support even more because of their customized code written specifically to meet our needs."

David Li Ph.D.
Xindium Technologies, CA
------------------
"Having spent a considerable amount of time working with a competing load pull system, I found many advantages to using the Focus Load Pull system to support my design tasks."

John B. Call
Silicon Wireless Corporations, NC
-------------------
"FSCI has several load pull setups so I have been able to try competitor's setups. I found the Focus system took data faster (3-10x shorter calibration and measurement time) with equally reproducible data, and easier to learn and to use."

Jon Shumaker,
Fujitsu Compound Semiconductor, CA
---------------------
"The equipment works as advertised. Tech support and the availability of engineering to answer technical questions is excellent."
