High Dynamic Range Microwave Tuner Designed and in Production
We haven't posted in a while. It's because we've been crazy busy. Our newest product, the RCT0017 WB Tuner and Quad Converter, has been under development over the past 2 years, and is now available. We've designed this from the ground up to meet state of the art high input compression point, low phase noise, fast tuning speed, wide dynamic range, and wide instantaneous bandwidth requirements. A quick overview of the specifications:

JBU RF Plate SN3 Delivered
JBU RF Plate SN3 was delivered to our customer (ahead of
schedule!). The RF Module was designed to provide wideband gain,
equalization, and Built-in-test (BIT) injection between two very
long RF cable runs (between an Antenna Assembly and below decks
receivers). The gain and equalization was needed to preserve the
RF path noise figure and dynamic range performance through the
long cable run.
All RF test data (gain, slope, flatness, return loss, input 1 dB
compression point, and noise figure) was collected using our in
house test equipment and our in house automated RF test software
(Painless Extraction, Painless Extraction Noise Figure, and
RFSpecTest). Mechanical parts were fabricated externally from our
SolidWorks created mechanical drawings, and chem-film treated with
Iridite (MIL-C-5541E Class 3) to prevent corrosion.

New Integrated RF Test Rack Designed and Delivered
On September 15 2006, R. A. Wood Associates delivered the first two of 15 complete Integrated RF Test Racks. The Integrated RF Test Rack provided a complete solution for complete automated testing of 7 RF/Digital modules. All equipment was controlled through GPIB interfaces. All automated test software was written in National Instruments LabVIEW by R. A. Wood Associates. RFSpecTest was used in "script" mode to perform most of the RF measurements. The rack consisted of:
The full rack was designed to be a comfortable testing environment, as well as easy to maintain. Equipment is easy to remove if needed with minimal interference to other equipment. More information about the Integrated RF Test Rack is available from this link. |

New Website Design - What do you think?
Hello Everybody!As you may have noticed, we've recently revamped our web site. Some of the original pages were created about 11 years ago, and were in serious need of evolving the same way the World Wide Web has evolved. You should find it to be better organized and more consistent across the site. If you have any comments, or find any links that don't work, please let us know (contact link). Thanks to Sean for working so hard on this! -Bob Wood
