Activity Detection Unit
DG009-M1
-
Many advanced EW receivers, particularly those associated with ECM jamming systems, do not require the high resolution frequency information associated with a DFD or IFM based receiver. This is typically the case where a single pulse present within a broad frequency band is required to be detected and instantaneously down-converted to an IF band.TDS manufactures a range of Frequency Activity Detectors (FADs) also known as Activity Detection Units (ADU) which perform frequency measurement of an RF pulse and output data in as little as 15ns. The basis of these products is TDS’s ability to produce high performance broadband channelisers and integrated detectors. These devices are ideal for receivers which must operate in very high pulse density environments.

MADC-011021
-
Macom Technology Solutions Holdings Inc.
The MADC-011021 is a surface mount E-band receiver. The module operates from 71 - 86 GHz and is designed to be used in direct conversion or heterodyne applications. The RF input is a WR12 interface. The module provides 12 dB of conversion gain and a noise figure of 5 dB. The linear mixer topology allows for strong IIP3 performance (2 dBm) to be maintained up to the radio input levels recommended in the standards. The baseband is a quadrature balanced four line interface (I, I*, Q, Q*).
