ATSv5 Automated Tuner System Software (MT993 Series)

Introduction


The Maury Automated Tuner System Software (ATS v5) is the easiest-to-use, yet most advanced, and most powerful device characterization software in the world. It brings together a comprehensive suite of software tools that greatly simplifies device characterization applications. The advanced development of this software has made it a must-have part of any modern test and measurement lab. For a growing community of RF and Microwave engineers and designers, Maury's ATS software has truly become the brain behind their device characterization operations.

What ATSv5 Software Can Do For You


Maury ATSv5 makes it possible to accurately measure power, gain, efficiency, IMD, ACPR, EVM, harmonics, noise parameters and many other characteristics of a device under test (DUT). Measured data from the ATSv5 software can be imported with ease into Agilent's ADS software environment for simulation of device models or PA/LNA designs. Optionally, using ATSv5 with the Maury DLL library gives users the accuracy and repeatability of the Maury ATS hardware with the flexibility to write their own custom test and measurement applications.

ATSv5 builds upon the legendary reliability and robustness of ATSv4 which was the most comprehensive upgrade and improvement to ATS since the Windows™ release in 2000. The central features include an all new and significantly improved GUI API for direct tuner control (eliminating the need for the legacy tuner controller object) and the availability of a comprehensive DLL kit.

But perhaps the most exciting feature of ATSv5 is the addition of a powerful new method of cascaded harmonic load pull that eliminates the need for diplexers/triplexers.

In addition, this release of ATS has undergone extensive QA testing, including comprehensive regression analysis for algorithmic integrity evaluation, a rigorous automated analysis to identify, document and correct defects, and live hardware evaluation in Maury's device characterization laboratory.

ATSv5 is designed to run under Microsoft® Windows™ XP and Windows™ 7.
