SOURCES

VCO with Extremely Low Power Consumption

The SMV0912B-LF is a high performance VCO that operates from 865 to 960 MHz within the Vtune range of 0 to 2.5 VDC. It saves precious energy by consuming less than 20 mW of power while at the same time delivering +3 dBm of output power into a 50 Ω load. The SMV0912B-LF has exceptional low phase noise of -100 dBc/Hz at 10 kHz offset and operates off a 3 VDC supply while drawing a mere 6 mA of current.

SOFTWARE

SignalShark Real Time Spectrum Analyzer

The SignalShark real time spectrum analyzer is designed to be an open platform. By integrating a powerful computer with Windows 10, Narda has decided to remove system limitations of the SignalShark family. The software for most applications runs exclusively on Windows computers—and therefore runs on the SignalShark, too. Regardless of any specific file formats, users can analyze, archive, visualize and export their measurement results. They can load their own software packages on to the analyzer to handle user-specific services.
