Synthesized Broadband Frequency Converters Delivers 1.0 GHz of Instantaneous Bandwidth Features & Options Multi-Octave bandwidth: 2 to 18 GHz Low frequency extension to 500 MHz High frequency extension to 40 GHz IF & Baseband Input & Output High dynamic range K RATOS-CTI series IA Broadband Up/Down Converters offer multi-octave frequency conversion for use in modern EW systems. Designed for applications requiring down conversion of the microwave spectrum into a Digital RF Memory (DRFM) and then up conversion back to the microwave spectrum frequency range, the series IA converters are the perfect complement to your EW system. In addition, the series IA converters offer a common synthesized LO, low spurious, high dynamic range, fast switching and programmable gain enabling easy integration into multiple platforms. Kratos-CTI series IA utilizes CTI's proprietary broadband technology enabling excellent spurious and ultra low phase noise performance. The typical phase noise performance is -105 dBc/Hz at 10 kHz and -110 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz offset. Low phase noise pre-selector Optional frequency extenders for operation down to 500 MHz and up to 40 GHz are available upon request. Kratos-CTI can also custom tailor frequency plans to meet your specific application needs. Programmable gain Typical specifications include: Excellent gain flatness RF Frequency Range : 2 to 18 GHz Instantaneous Bandwidth (IBW) : 1.0 GHz Band Overlap & Step Size : 1/2 of IBW Spurious :-60 dBc Baseband Range : 100 - 1100 MHz IF Range : 2100 to 3100 MHz Gain : 0 to 30 dB in 1 dB steps Output P1dB : 20 dBm Configurations :Single and Dual Converters available in a 1U assembly Custom frequency plans Fast switching Ultra low phase noise Low spurious Internal reference External reference 10 to 100 MHz Units are available in modular configurations as well as rack mount styles.
