Description
The Part Number for the product is 199414G-01L, which is categorized under RF Downconverters. The model specified for this part is PXIe-5605. It operates over a Frequency Range of 20 Hz to 14 GHz, ensuring it can handle a broad spectrum of signals.
When it comes to performance metrics, the Average Noise Level at a 1 GHz carrier frequency is exceptionally low at -165 dBm/Hz, indicating a high sensitivity to weak signals. Moreover, the Phase Noise performance at a -1 GHz carrier frequency is also impressive, standing at -129 dBc/Hz.
The device includes several types of IF Bandpass Filters, including options for 5 MHz, 300 kHz, and a Through pass filter. The Through IP Bandpass Filter Bandwidth achieves a nominal 80 MHz and a typical 47 MHz with a Pre-selector, ensuring flexibility in signal processing. The 5 MHz Filter provides a nominal bandwidth of 5 MHz at -3 dB, whereas the 300 kHz Filter offers a nominal IF Output Frequency of 199 MHz at -3 dB, catering to various application needs.
In terms of connectivity, the unit is equipped with multiple connectors: RF IN, IF OUT, LO1 IN, LO2 IN, LO3 IN, LO1 OUT, LO2 OUT, and LO3 OUT, providing versatile interfacing options. An External DC Block is required at the RF IN Connector, ensuring protection and integrity of the signal path.
Despite being Announced as Obsolete by National Instruments, this product remains available through Apex Waves, offering continued support for users in need of this specific RF Downconverter model.
