Automated Test Equipment

MPG supports automated test equipment (ATE) with high-end critical electronic components, including switches, filters and also integrated solutions, to ensure accurate results and enduring performance. 


Overview

The functionality and the safety of an electronic device is only as reliable as the components in the automated test equipment used for diagnosing and testing products. MPG’s highly experienced engineers work with each customer to design devices that meet individual needs and standards, including high quality fixed filters, digital tuned filters, switched matrix and mechanical switches. Due to our willingness to push boundaries in terms of performance, frequency and PIM, we are the sole manufacturer of high-performance products in many markets.

Heritage

MPG is a pioneer in the automated test equipment market. At a time when few testing solutions existed, we were not afraid to take on the impossible. Instead, we listened to our customers and responded with proprietary components. Early on, our tenacity and customer dedication gave birth to breakthroughs in filtering solutions, resulting in one of the first products designed to measure the output energy from a 3G base station under full power at a large dynamic range. We continued to evolve with advancements in technology and now design and manufacture a full line of automated testing solution products for the needs of the growing LTE and 5G markets.

As the world’s largest manufacturer of RF electromechanical switches, MPG has supported the ATE market with superior solutions since 1999. Our experienced engineers continue to work directly with our customers to solve for some of the industry’s most complex testing equipment scenarios.
