Description
The 159813B-01L is a premier mmWave Transceiver System, specifically the PXIe-3620 model, designed to serve as an RF Upconverter and Downconverter Module. Crafted by National Instruments, this sophisticated piece of technology is engineered for precision and performance.
Its transmitter operates within the frequency range of 8.5 to 13.5 GHz, ensuring broad coverage for various applications. The receiver boasts an instant bandwidth of 2 GHz, providing ample capacity for a wide range of signal processing needs.
One of the notable features of the PXIe-3620 is its LO System Support, which accommodates MIMO applications, LO sharing, and the integration with external mmWave heads and LO sources such as the PXIe-5653. This versatility makes it an invaluable tool for sophisticated communications and radar systems.
The device is compatible with the MMRH-3647, a 71-76 GHz MMWave TX Adapter, enhancing its utility in high-frequency applications. Its phase noise performance is characterized by 20 log10(x) dB, where x represents the LO1 multiplication factor, typically 8 or 6, ensuring signal integrity and minimal interference.
Additionally, the PXIe-3620 is designed to work seamlessly with PXIe-3610 (AWG) and PXIe-3630 (Digitizer) modules, further extending its capabilities and integration options within the PXI ecosystem.
For connectivity, it features a 50 Ω SMA female IF Interface Connector, and LO1 and LO2 Interface Connectors are of 50Ω and 500Ω MMPX female types, respectively, providing reliable and versatile connection options for various external devices and systems.
