​RF Testing = S-parameters; Vector network analysers: 2-port and 4-port, DC to >50GHz; Automatic data capture through PC link and integration with Labview software

EMC testing of RF components = Radiated emission and susceptibility; Spectrum analyser and RF Synthesised source to cover DC to 40GHz

Glitch Testing = Detect and record glitches (i.e. sudden changes in the insertion loss of the units under test with amplitudes >0.05dB and durations >100msec), as test items subjected to changes in temperature; Water cooled oven for fast thermal response; Automatic testing under PC control​

RF Power and Intermodulation Distortion = Pairs of amplifiers for testing in the following power levels and frequency bands: · 500W 200-500MHz · 300W 825-2300MHz · 100W 2.5-2.8GHz

Altitude chamber = Pressures to 50,000 ft (75 torr); thermal measurements of reverse power into load; bell jar, vacuum pump and interface plate for thermocouples, RF and DC connections

Testing at high and low temperatures = Numerous Votsch climatic chambers -40°C to +130°C; ATE controlled, holding pre-set dwells and saving s2p files; Overlay plots to show drift; In-house software calculates gradient with frequency and over temperature

Miscellaneous = PC control for automated testing and recording of results; Environmental Stress Screening (ESS); Thermal Shock and vibration facilities as described elsewhere.
