Overview

• Broadband quadrature modulator, including DACs, agile frequency synthesizer, quadrature RF modulator and output power detector
• Software tunable in the range 400 MHz – 4.4 GHz by steps of 5 KHz or less
• Dual 12-bit 500 Msamples/s DACs. LVDS digital input for direct connection with FPGA module
• Wideband modulation bandwidth > 200 MHz
• Output level: 2dBm
• RF synthesizer is locked onto an internal VCTCXO (2.5ppm) or higher-stability external 10 MHz frequency reference
• Built-in output power detector and temperature sensor
• USB Monitoring & Control Interface
• Other features:
• Automatic selection of internal / external 10 MHz frequency reference for the frequency synthesizer
• 8 preset frequencies for fast (<200us) frequency hopping
• SMA connectors. Single 5V supply. Connectorized 3”x 3” module for ease of prototyping
• Interface compatibility:
• COM-1800 FPGA development platform
