Ultra Versatile, Multi-Octave RF Upconverter Delivers High
Performance Specifications for 2 MHz to 3 GHz RF Systems and Subsystems
Middletown,
Ohio, March 12, 2008 - A new high performance, multi-octave
RF upconverter delivers a spectrally pure RF output yielding a highly
flexible input and output frequency range selection. The RF2-3000UCV1
model offers the end user design versatility. The IF input ranges from
2 MHz to 70 MHz to provide a RF upconversion between 2 MHz and 3 GHz
with gain flatness under 2 dB for the specified spectrum. Delivering
on performance, the IF input boasts high dynamic range and user selectable
bandwidths. The RF2-3000UCV1 upconverter has 50
dB of attenuation control with incremental steps of 0.5 dB. The frequency
step size is 5 kHz. The device can handle input signals up +8 dBm. The
RF upconverter operates at 6 VDC. SMA connectors are provided for ease
of use. The module is packaged in a small-form-factor ruggedized aluminum
enclosure measuring only 1.0” x 2.5” x 3.5”. This RF2-3000UCV1 upconverter
can be used in variety of applications including, satellite TV, cellular,
waveform generators, communication systems, exciters, software defined
radios (SDR), Joint Tactical Radio System (JTRS), and in test and laboratory
systems. The RF upconverter can be used on the bench as a stand alone
RF signal generator. NuWaves Engineering is offering a development
kit to assist users in getting up-and-running fast. The kit includes
hardware, cables, and verbose software which will provide a user friendly
GUI. The GUI provides a simple and fast means to setup many of the parameters
such as LO frequencies, attenuation control, bandwidth selection, and
much more right from your PC. Availability of the development kit is
planned for Q1 ’08. Prices for the kit start at $4,999 USD. NuWaves
