Digital Video Open Frame Receiver

Palladium Digital Video Open Frame RX

The Palladium Pd-RX-Board series of receivers have been designed for repackaging into a variety of housings, such as operator control units for UGV/UAV’s, briefcase surveillance systems and other systems where higher levels of product integration are desirable. Offered as a board level assembly, the first stage RF down converters are provided separately from the main receiver board affording greater flexibility in packaging.

The Pd-RX-Board receiver is remarkably small, integrating all the electronics required for RF reception, MPEG 2 decoding, and COFDM demodulation. The standard system operates at 2.5 MHz channel spacing with approximately 400 carriers. An optional model enables the decoding of both the 2.5 MHz (narrowband) data stream as well as DVB-T compliant mode data at 6, 7 or 8 MHz channels. DTC’s engineering staff of 35 professionals can accommodate changes to board layout to provide fit, form and/or function capability in larger OEM applications.
