6.0 Block Up Converter Overview
Teledyne Paradise Datacom SSPAs are available with various L-Band up converter
options. The primary up converter option is the Zero dBm Block Up Converter,
ZBUC
TM
. The ZBUC block up converter is offered in four C-Band configurations, two
Ku-Band options, and one X-Band model. See
Table 6-1
for specifications on the
respective models. The ZBUC converter offers ultra low phase noise for applications
where phase noise is an overriding factor.
The type of ZBUC converter housed within your SSPA is indicated by its model
number, as shown in
Figure 6-1
. The example in
Figure 6-1
shows a 200W C-Band
Rack Mount SSPA with Internal Reference ZBUC converter. For a full description of
the configuration matrix, refer to the 3RU Rack Mount SSPA specification sheet
(204464).
The block up converters are high performance frequency translation devices which
provide excellent phase noise and spurious performance.
The ZBUC converter utilizes Teledyne Paradise Datacom’s proprietary “Smart
Reference Technology”. Smart Reference Technology allows the system user to
change reference frequency and power level or choose internal or external reference
without requiring any system configuration. An internal ZBUC converter adds about
1.5 pounds to the overall weight of the SSPA.
