The MT2000 is a mixed-signal active load pull system designed for high-speed impedance characterization of microwave devices across frequencies from 1 MHz to 67 GHz, replacing passive tuners, VNAs, NVNAs, generators, and analyzers. It supports single-tone CW and pulsed-CW RF signals with DC and pulsed-DC bias, enabling up to 2000 impedance states per minute, full Smith Chart coverage, and fundamental and harmonic impedance control. The system provides time-domain NVNA voltage and current waveform measurements, wideband impedance control up to 2000 MHz bandwidth, and is suitable for nonlinear model validation, behavioral extraction, and production testing. The MT2000E3 variant operates from 0.7 GHz to 40 GHz with a maximum CW/pulsed-CW power handling of 20 W and minimum pulse width of 60 ns. Its active load dynamic range is rated at 20 dB for all family members.
The MT1000 and MT2000 are turnkey one-box load pull solutions that replace the functions typically performed by passive fundamental and harmonic impedance tuners, VNAs, NVNAs, analog signal generators, vector signal generators, vector signal analyzers and oscilloscopes, and add the capabilities of high-speed load pull measurements and wideband impedance control for modulated signals. By combining multiple bench setups into a single box, offering unrivaled load pull speeds, and maximizing smith chart coverage, Maury’s MT2000 is a powerhouse for device characterization, validation nonlinear compact models and extracting nonlinear behavioral models.
