Description
The 157680B-01L PXIe-3620 RF Upconverter / Downconverter Module from National Instruments is a versatile transceiver module designed for RF applications, ideal for MIMO applications with a transmitter covering a frequency range of 8.5 to 13.5 GHz and a receiver offering 2 GHz of instant bandwidth. The adaptable LO system supports LO sharing and external mmWave heads for enhanced performance, essential when paired with the MMRH-3647 high power 71-76 GHz MMWave TX Adapter for proper operation.
The 157680B-01L PXIe-3620 RF Upconverter / Downconverter Module from National Instruments is a versatile transceiver module designed for RF applications. With a transmitter covering a frequency range of 8.5 to 13.5 GHz and a receiver offering 2 GHz of instant bandwidth, this module is ideal for MIMO applications. The adaptable LO system supports LO sharing and can drive external mmWave heads for enhanced performance. Additionally, it can accept external LO sources for higher phase noise requirements. When paired with the MMRH-3647 high power 71-76 GHz MMWave TX Adapter, the PXIe-3620 is essential for proper operation. Compatibility with mmWave radio heads introduces additional phase noise, which can be adjusted based on the LO1 multiplication factor. The module features various connectors for different interfaces, including 50 Ohm SMA female connectors for the IF interface and 50 Ohm MMPX female connectors for the LO1 interface. The PXIe-3620 can be easily connected to other NI modules such as the PXIe-3610 and PXIe-3630 for a complete RF testing solution.
