Wide usable bandwidth, up to 80MHz, flexible output signals, single tone or quadrature modulated, and a high SFDR all make the PMC-E2600 transmitter ideal for modern Radar and Software Radio applications.
The on-board FPGA resources provide the capability to add user defined, pre-reconstruction, signal processing (scrambling, coding, etc). The re-configurable nature of this processing supports the objective of Software Radio and can effectively increase the processing density of the overall system.
Designed to have a similar system interface, the PMC-E2600 is the ideal companion to Pentland’s PMC-E2200 receiver product. Together, these products will offer a complete transmit/receive digitisation solution for high-performance sensor processing applications.
The PMC-E2600 is designed path-to-rugged in accordance with the ANSI/VITA Conduction Cooled PMC specification and accommodates central stiffening bars on the host board. A cost-effective commercial version of the PMC-E2200 is available for prototyping in benign environments.
