SCi Blocks
Spectrum Control Inc. (booth #208) will showcase two significant additions to its SCi blocks family of miniature, modular and intelligent RF+Digital system blocks. The new DirectRF mezzanine is the company’s first RF-to-bits building block and an extension to its innovative SOSA-aligned wideband transceiver. Leveraging the Altera Agilex® 9 FPGA, it converts up to eight RF inputs and eight RF outputs at sample rates of up to 64 Gsps, with 32 GHz IBW. They will also unveil their new RF+Digital system-in-package platform, dramatically shrinking the RF frontend. The first SiP is a low noise, high gain wideband preselector in a standard BGA package.
