SOLID STATE IMPEDANCE TUNERS

摘要

A solid state impedance tuner (30) or impedance tuner system including a housing structure (36) and at least two solid state tuner modules (10) electrically combined and disposed in one package within the housing structure. Each tuner module includes at least one solid state control element. Another embodiment is directed to an impedance tuner module card configured in a standardized system architecture. The card includes a chassis board, and at least one solid state tuner module integrated on the card and supported on or by the chassis board, each module including at least one solid state control element. Methods for calibrating a solid state impedance tuner that includes at least two solid state tuner modules combined in one package are disclosed.
