Teseq buys Milmega to strengthen RF amplifier offering

Teseq Holding, developer of instrumentation and systems for EMC emission and immunity testing, has acquired UK-based MILMEGA, designer and manufacturer of solid state, high-power microwave and RF amplifiers.

The acquisition strengthens Teseq capabilities in commercial, industrial, automotive, military and communications applications.

Johannes Schmid, President of Teseq, said: "RF amplifier power, linearity and harmonic performance is critical to achieving accurate immunity testing results. Adding MILMEGA’s amplifiers to Teseq’s extensive range of EMC testing products extends our product offering to include both EMC and non-EMC applications."

Established in 1987, MILMEGA designs and manufactures high power amplifiers for commercial and government applications. The company’s core strength lies in the development of broadband RF power amplifiers operating in a frequency range from 80 MHz to 8 GHz with power levels to 1 kW.

Pat Moore, Managing Director of MILMEGA said: "Combining our individual strengths ensures our market focused approach to new developments and enables us to more accurately define new amplifier requirements for years to come."

The MILMEGA factory will become a competence center for RF amplifiers within the Teseq organisation, which is currently comprised of eight subsidiaries and seven accredited labs worldwide.
