RF tuner tailored for receiver, transmitter filter apps


The RF200-2500TUNV1 is the first in a family from NuWaves Engineering of wideband, RF tuners (HiPerTUNER) that is designed for both receiver and transmitter filter applications.

The RF200-2500TUNV1 can be used as a premier pre-selector in a receiver or as a post filtering in the transmit-driver. The RF200-2500TUNV1 model covers an industry-first wide frequency range of 200MHz to 2,500MHz with multiple cascaded tunable varactor tuned filters to achieve superior out-of-band frequency rejection. The modular unit is housed in a small ruggedized aluminum chassis measuring 6.50in x 4in x 0.70in.

The HiPerTUNER uses SMA connectors to provide the end user with design versatility. The digital and power interface is a mini-Din 9 pin connector. The hardware can be easily configured with commands from a RS232 formatted input from any terminal program to control the attenuation level and frequency selection. Depending on the selected frequency, the typical bandwidth will range from 2 percent to 4 percent.

Pricing for the RF200-2500TUNV1 starts at $3,548 in small volumes; the RF200-2500TUNV1 HiPerTUNER kit will be priced at $3,988.

The kit will be available this quarter.
