QM1004A-2-18 Combined RF Upconverter/Downconverter
User Manual
3. System Block Diagram
A system block diagram for the QM1004A-2-18 Combined RF Upconverter/Downconverter is shown in
Figure 1.2. Internal attenuators in the upconverter and downconverter blocks are controlled digitally via
an FPGA and microcontroller, which interfaces to a PC through USB or TCP/IP. The microcontroller out-
puts basic status messages on a 32-character Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) mounted on the faceplate of
the unit. An internal 100 MHz reference clock is phase-locked to all of the internal LOs, with a BNC-F
connector providing the option for LOs to lock to a user-provided 10-250 MHz external reference. Two
additional BNC-F connectors output an internally-generated 10 MHz and 100 MHz reference for use by
external test equipment. Switching between the internal and external LO reference clocks is controlled
either by the microcontroller or a reference selector switch. The 12-40 GHz LO1 and 23 GHz LO2 outputs
are provided for external phase locking. and multi-channel or MIMO applications.
