D5550 Wideband RF Downconverter/Tuner
Measure & monitor wideband signals up to 160 MHz bandwidth through the new Wideband IQ (WBIQ)
TEST, MEASURE & MONITOR WIDEBAND SIGNALS UP TO 160 MHz WITH thinkRF D5550
The thinkRF D5550 offers a cost-effective platform for test, measurement and monitoring of wideband signals up to 160 MHz bandwidth through the new Wideband IQ (WBIQ) options.
Hybrid receiver architecture supports both super-heterodyne and direct-conversion modes of operation through software control.
Offers the advantage of providing the widest bandwidth in the simplest and most cost-effective way.
Hybrid receiver architecture does not introduce DC and IQ offsets and allows the user to software-reconfigure the receiver to either architecture depending on the application.
Wideband IQ option for up to 160 MHz RTBW (An external dual-channel digitizer with each channel sampling at 250 MSa/s is required for WBIQ variants).
Wide Frequency Range
The thinkRF D5550 Wideband RF Downconverter/Tuner supports frequency ranges from 50 MHz up to 8 GHz / 27 GHz which enables testing of modern systems including tests such as third-order intercept.
WBIQ Wideband Option*
Analyze today’s complex signals with up to 160 MHz direction conversion (0 Hz IF) I and Q analogue ports on the WBIQ model. The wideband version is engineered for analyzing wideband digital communications such as 3G / 4G / LTE, WiFi, or general Vector Signal Analysis (VSA) applications involving broadband signals.
*Radio receiver front-end support for 80 MHz Super-Heterodyne and 160 MHz Zero-IF RTBW. The RTBW of 80 or 160 MHz is accessed via Analog IQ out only. The internal digitizer remains at 125 MSa/s. An external dual-channel digitizer with each channel sampling at 250 MSa/s is required for WBIQ variants, silent, fanless
Extend range up to 27 GHz RF Downconverter
The thinkRF D5550 Wideband RF Downconverter/Tuner can extend the range of existing spectrum analysis up to 27 GHz. It can be employed as wideband downconverters featuring a single RF input and three standard software selectable IF bandwidths – 10 MHz, 40 MHz, 100 MHz, or three optional software selectable IF bandwidths, 10 MHz, 80 MHz, 160 MHz. The carrier centre frequencies can be tuned from 50 MHz to 27 GHz, including direct digitization below 50 MHz down to 9 kHz.
APIs & Protocols Proven Integrations
thinkRF and its application ecosystem helps developers, engineers, and program manager see the full picture in complex spectrum environment. thinkRF has a wide variety of application partners depending on your requirements.
SWaP Compact & PC-Driven
Leverage advances in computing and networking by connecting to any standard PC. The easily upgradable thinkRF D5550 Wideband RF Downconverter/Tuner is compact, lightweight, and low power, making it perfect for deployment in the field, on vehicles, or as part of a larger solution. The emphasis on quality, usability, and design provides an alternative to traditional, bulky spectrum analysis hardware when deployed in the lab, out in the field, or in a vehicle for mobile applications.
