About the above video:
Our most popular products are wireless video transmitters and receivers. However, some clients require modification of the transmission frequency to meet local legal demand, in which case the digital frequency up-down converter block comes in handy. One customer requested that we customize the RF frequency down converter for his 2.4G wireless video transmitter. So the input frequency is 2.4GHz, the output frequency is 600MHz, and the lowdown frequency is 1800MHz. We created the sample in accordance with his specifications. So I showed him a simple video that showed the 2.4G transmitter and 600Mhz receiver working correctly. If you have a similar requirement, such as 1-3G frequency input and 300-700Mhz output, please contact us for a custom solution.
FAQs
A RF frequency block downconverter (BDC) for wireless video transmitters is a device that can convert a high frequency range to a low frequency range.
Typically used on the wireless video transmitter side. For example,
- From 5.8G to 2.4G down converter
- From 2.4G to 1.2G down converter
- From 1.2G to 600Mhz down converter
This is due to the fact that wireless transmission frequencies in many countries or regions are restricted by local laws and regulations.
It is not permitted to use in a specific frequency range.
To change the operating frequency of the transmitter and receiver, down-conversion or up-conversion is required. Make sure the transmission frequency is in accordance with local laws and regulations.
There is also the case where the professional receiving frequency is fixed, for example, between 300-800Mhz.
In order for the transmitter's frequency to be paired, the frequency of the 1.2G transmitter must be reduced.
All of this necessitates the use of a frequency downconverter for wireless video transmission.

Question: If a signal of -25 dbm enter, what level has the coverterd output?
Answer: 0 dBm
We can not make a frequency up convert from 1.0-2.5 GHz to 5.8 GHz.
But we can produce the frequency up convert from 1.0-2.5 GHz to 4.3G~5.8 GHz. Every input frequency add 3.3G (3300Mhz) to output frequency.
What is DDC
In digital signal processing, a digital down-converter (DDC) converts a digitized, band-limited signal to a lower frequency signal at a lower sampling rate in order to simplify the subsequent radio stages. The process preserves all the information in the original signal less that which is lost to rounding errors in the mathematical processes. The input and output signals can be real or complex samples. Often the DDC converts from the raw radio frequency or intermediate frequency down to a complex baseband signal.
Architecture
A DDC consists of three subcomponents: a direct digital synthesizer (DDS), a low-pass filter (LPF), and a down sampler (which may be integrated into the low-pass filter). The DDS generates a complex sinusoid at the intermediate frequency (IF). Multiplication of the intermediate frequency with the input signal creates images centered at the sum and difference frequency (which follows from the frequency-shifting properties of the Fourier transform). The low-pass filters pass the difference (i.e. baseband) frequency while rejecting the sum frequency image, resulting in a complex baseband representation of the original signal. Assuming a judicious choice of IF and LPF bandwidth, the complex baseband signal is mathematically equivalent to the original signal. In its new form, it can readily be down-sampled and is more convenient to many DSP algorithms. Any suitable low-pass filter can be used including FIR, IIR, and CIC filters. The most common choice is an FIR filter for low amounts of decimation (less than ten) or a CIC filter followed by an FIR filter for larger down-sampling ratios.
Variations on the DDC
Several variations on the DDC are helpful, including many that input a feedback signal into the DDS. These include:
- Decision-directed carrier recovery phase-locked loops in which the I and Q are compared to the nearest ideal constellation point of a PSK signal, and the resulting error signal is filtered and fed back into the DDS
- A Costas loop in which the I and Q are multiplied and low pass filtered as part of a BPSK/QPSK carrier recovery loop
Implementation
DDCs are most commonly implemented in logic in field-programmable gate arrays or application-specific integrated circuits. While software implementations are also possible, operations in the DDS, multipliers, and input stages of the low-pass filters all run at the sampling rate of the input data. This data is commonly taken directly from analog to digital converters (ADCs) sampling at tens or hundreds of MHz. CORDIC is an alternative to the use of multipliers in the implementation of digital down converters.
