Perguntas frequentes
Q: Does your BDC frequency down converter with integrated amplifier support the full 2.0–2.4 GHz range with LO 1840 MHz?
UMA: Not completely. This dual-channel model BDC2179 includes an internal power amplifier, which limits its bandwidth capability. This amplifier cannot support a wide 400 MHz frequency range and is restricted to a maximum bandwidth of approximately 100 MHz. Como resultado, a BDC2179 only supports the following frequency bands: 2140 ± 50 MHz / 2155 ± 50 MHz / 2250 ± 50 MHz / 2350 ± 50 MHz.
If you require full coverage of the 2.0–2,4 GHz alcance, recomendamos usar nosso single-channel model Vcan2016 (BDC2016). This model supports the entire 2000–2400 MHz frequency range. Contudo, please note that the Vcan2016 is a canal único dispositivo. If your COFDM receiver uses dual-channel diversity RF inputs, you will need to use two units to achieve the same functionality as a dual-channel solution.
Resumo: BDC2179 (canal duplo): Limited frequency bands due to internal amplifier constraints; Vcan2016 / BDC2016 (canal único): Full 2.0–2.4 GHz support; two units required for diversity systems
Q1: What is the maximum input signal level this down converter can handle?
A1: The device supports an input range from -120 dBm up to +10 dBm.
Q2: Can I customize the output frequency?
A2: sim, we offer customized frequency ranges beyond the standard 775–810 MHz output.
Q3: Quão estável é a conversão de frequência?
A3: The unit uses a 0.5 ppm high-stability TCXO oscillator, providing a frequency accuracy of ±10 KHz.
Q4: Is the converter suitable for UAV video transmission?
A4: Absolutamente. Seu tamanho compacto, dual-channel conversion, and low phase noise make it ideal for COFDM UAV applications.
Q5: What are the power requirements?
A5: It operates on 3.3–5.5V DC with a current of 0.35–0.4A, supplied through a through-core capacitor.
