PSK/QAM/APSK Digital Modulator

KEY FEATURES
  • Digital modulator with flexible configuration:
    • Modulation: BPSK, QPSK, OQPSK, p/4 DQPSK, 8-PSK, 16QAM, 16APSK, 32APSK
      Variable data rates up to 22 Msymbols/s
      Center frequency: +/- 10 MHz
  • Modulator outputs:
    • Digital (2 * 10-bit complex, up to 90 Msamples/s)
      Digital (2 * 14-bit complex, up to 50 Msamples/s)
  • Modulator data inputs:
    • Synchronous serial interface, or
      USB 1.1/2.0
  • Internal generation of pseudo-random bit stream and unmodulated carrier for test purposes
  • Synchronization sequence (unique word) insertion to facilitate demodulator phase ambiguity removal
  • ComScope-enabled: key internal signals can be captured in real-time and displayed on the host computer
  • Connectorized 3"x 3" module for ease of prototyping. Standard 40 pin 2mm dual row connectors (left, right, bottom). Single 5V supply with reverse voltage and overvoltage protection. Interfaces with 3.3V LVTTL logic
