40 GHz RF Downconverters

The SC5320A is a Ka band single stage downconverter, with input RF range from 20 GHz to 40 GHz, external LO frequency range from 10 GHz to 20 GHz, output IF range from 100 MHz to 4 GHz, and 3 dB bandwidth of 2 GHz. This module features an internal synthesized local oscillator, selectable RF preamplifier, and variable gain control, making it a compact and versatile standalone downconverter module. With the option for an external LO, the SC5320A may be configured for SISO applications or paired together with multiple units for MIMO applications such as ground-based satellite communications, point-to-point radio, test instruments, and other rf measurement systems.

Full implementation instructions, GUI, driver software, and example code are provided with each module.
