What Zmetrix does

Zmetrix (legal entity ZMetrix, Inc.) is a privately held US corporation incorporated in Utah, operating from Spanish Fork, UT. The company designs and manufactures controlled impedance test systems based on Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) for PCB design and manufacturing customers. Its product portfolio centers on two flagship instruments — the ST600 (7 GHz bandwidth, 75 psec rise time) and the ST808 (dual 10/20 GHz bandwidth, 25 psec rise time) — both calibrated to NIST traceable standards using 25, 50, 75, and 100 Ohm Airlines, and both supporting single-ended and differential measurements across a 10-200 Ohm range with 1% accuracy. The SL100 Insertion Loss System extends the portfolio into complementary loss characterization, and ZScan Windows software automates calibration, verification, data logging, and statistical reporting. Systems are sold as turnkey bundles with probes, semi-rigid reference standards, USB foot switches, SMA torque wrenches, and cables.

The company addresses two primary use cases: production impedance measurement and quality control for cables, connectors, and PCB traces, and verification of signal integrity characteristics in electronic assemblies. End customers are manufacturers needing NIST-traceable, production-grade impedance testing rather than research or characterization labs. The go-to-market is direct sales, with a US contact (Michael Merrell) and an international contact based in Italy (Gaetano Dall Ora), reflecting a consultative, technically specialized sales motion. Pricing is not publicly disclosed. The company was effectively established around 2017 based on its website copyright notice, has 1-10 employees, has no disclosed funding, no public capital markets presence, and no M&A activity.

Core offering

Zmetrix manufactures controlled impedance test systems based on Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) technology, primarily the ST600 and ST808 instruments, along with the SL100 Insertion Loss System and ZScan Windows measurement software. These systems are sold to electronics, cable, and connector manufacturers for production-level impedance measurement, signal-integrity verification, and quality control, with NIST-traceable calibration and bundled accessories.

Product overview

Zmetrix is a provider of precision impedance test and measurement systems. The product portfolio centers on two flagship TDR (Time Domain Reflectometry) instruments: the ST600 and ST808, both featuring NIST-traceable calibration. The ST808 represents an upgraded model with higher bandwidth options (10/20 GHz) and expanded measurement capabilities including insertion-loss testing and short trace measurement. The SL100 Insertion Loss System serves as a complementary add-on. All systems ship with comprehensive accessories including probes, reference standards, cables, and torque wrenches, and include ZScan Windows-based measurement software for data collection, calibration, verification, and statistical reporting.
