Description
Rover RCRF is CAES APD’s latest reconfigurable RF board with design, simulation, and synthesis software using NI AWRs VSS and Microwave Office. Quickly create an up converter, down converter, Heterodyne amplifier, or a variety of RF systems using this reconfigurable RF system demonstrator. In minutes, you can design a circuit, simulate it, realize it in hardware, and see how it performs on your lab bench. Then quickly redesign it however you’d like: try a different filter, add an amplifier block or notch out a spur, and see instant results. Choose the Rover-RCRF for your next RF design!
