Maury Microwave is pleased to announce the release of its uCal™ Universal VNA Calibration Modules, designed to automate and simplify VNA calibration for faster, more accurate, and repeatable measurements.
The newly released models include:
- UC26-35: 26.5 GHz uCal with 3.5mm connectors
- UC18-7: 18 GHz uCal with 7mm connectors
- UC18-N: 18 GHz uCal with Type N connectors
uCal integrates individually characterized open, short, load, and through calibration standards, with all characterization data stored in the module’s onboard memory. By electronically switching between standards, uCal expedites calibration by eliminating cable disconnection/reconnection and improves measurement accuracy with minimal human-induced errors. The modules also incorporate an integrated transmission line that serves as a verification device, enabling users to confirm calibration accuracy and quickly identify setup issues.
Additional features and benefits of the uCal modules:
- Eliminates manual connection/disconnection of standards, improving calibration speed, reducing connector wear, and extending the life of VNA ports and cables.
- Improves accuracy, repeatability, and ease-of-use by minimizing operator errors, such as improper torquing or connector inconsistencies.
- Communicates with compatible VNAs directly or through the Maury Insight VNA calibration and measurement software suite.
