Digital Down Converter ( R&S EB500-DDC)
With R&S EB500-DDC the R&S EB500 becomes a multi-channel receiver. In addi-
tion to the basic receiver channel, another three receive channels are available.
These receive channels are realized with Digital Down Converters (DDCs) within
the IF bandwidth. Each DDC can demodulate AM, FM, PM, PULSe or IQ up to a
bandwidth of 1 MHz and CW, LSB and USB up to a bandwidth of 9 kHz. An inde-
pendent audio volume and balance for each DDC as well as for the basic receiver
channel enable flexible audio mixing and recording. The DDC frequencies can be
set independently or coupled to the basic receiver frequency. The demodulation
parameters "Demodulation Mode", "Bandwidth", "Squelch state" and "Squelch
threshold" can also be set independently or coupled to the corresponding receiver
parameters.
The steps below will guide you through a typical scenario when using Digital Down
Converters.
