Mezzanine Cards

Wideband RF transmit or receive mezzanines with integrated digital tuning and control.

Complete  RF front-end in a 130 by 20 mm mezzanine (stick) with full signal isolation, customizable for your mission application. 

Miniaturized, intelligent and customizable

Highly integrated wideband RF Tx and Rx mezzanines digitally enabled, and customizable for your application requirements.

Standard configurations are single- and dual-channel packages. Other configurations and packages are available. Contact sales@spectrumcontrol.com for more information.

Unmatched RF Density. We achieved breakthrough miniaturization using a novel model-based design and state-of-the-art SMT packaging allowing us to reduce the size of a complete wideband RF front-end into a 130 by 20 mm mezzanine (stick) with full signal isolation.

Digital Interface. Built into each mezzanine is a digital interface for system tuning, channel control and health & configuration. Each mezzanine contains its own factory-set frequency and temperature calibration data minimizing the need for additional system calibration. This integral digital capability, with a simple 4-wire interface, also dramatically simplifies system integration.

Customization. Standard form factors include single- and dual-channel configurations in metal enclosures with coaxial connections. Customizations include mounting, connectors (RF, control, power). Additional special functionality for multiple mezzanines is available (example: coherent LOs).
