Hello, I am looking to buy an Altera DSP FPGA Kit (DSP Development Kit, Stratix III Edition) for school research but I'm not sure how i am going to build an RF-Front End for it. I am looking to receive signals up to +30 dBm from 30 MHz - 2 GHz with bandwidths up to 50 MHz.
This kit comes with two 150 MSPS 14-bit ADCs and 250 MSPS 14-bit DACs. My question is it possible to buy a Commercial off the Shelf Front-End that provides the necessary inputs? Is there something special that I have to do in order to receive signal levels up to +30 dBm so that my ADCs do not saturate? My goal would be to build it myself, but if I am pressed with deadlines I will have to get COTS product. -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Building-an-RF-Front-end-for-DSP-FPGA-Kits-with-ADCs-tp30662773p30662773.html Sent from the GnuRadio mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Discuss-gnuradio mailing list Discuss-gnuradio@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnuradio
