New MultiStar Test System Makes RF Radiated Immunity Testing Faster And More Versatile Than Ever!

Models MT06000A and MT06002

The MT06000A and MT06002 models (MultiStar Multi-Tone Tester) are state-of-the-art systems that are designed to test RF Radiated and Conducted Immunity faster than ever before. With the enhanced AR MultiStar Multi-Tone Tester commercial, aviation, and automotive industries, will perform RF radiated and conducted immunity testing faster, more accurately, more efficiently, and more closely to a real-world environment.

The number of tones is only limited by the signal generator bandwidth (up to 1 GHz) and the size of the amplifier.

The MT06000A contains all the features needed to perform IEC 61000-4-3 RF radiated immunity testing, required by many European test standard standards

The new enhanced MT06002 offers testing from 10 kHz to 6 GHz, greatly expanding testing capabilities to include both RF radiated and conducted immunity standards. And, with a 1GHz instantaneous bandwidth the number of tones has increased exponentially, vastly increasing the speed of testing.

Amplifiers, antennas and directional couplers can be sized and selected based on your required field levels and testing needs. Up to 4 RF amplifiers, antennas and directional couplers can be controlled by the MultiStar Multi-Tone Tester. In addition, up to 4 field probes can be monitored with the M1 option.

Multi-Tone Systems FAQ

These systems contain a vector signal transceiver, RF pre-amplifier, RF field probe(s), RF switch matrix, and automated immunity test software. These system components are contained in a single housing, which eliminates setup issues.

The MultiStar software includes automated routines to calibrate the field and maximize the speed of the test, by generating the most tones possible, while still meeting the Linearity and Harmonics requirements.

In the event of an EUT failure, margin investigation (thresholding) and traditional single tone testing can be performed to window the test only in the areas of concern.
