Figure 2 Baseband High Speed Connector and Expansion Board Connectors
Figure 2 shows the pinout of the high speed baseband connector and the expansion board coaxial connectors. For higher
level system integration, direct connection via the Samtec high speed connector can be facilitated using the mating Samtec
connector as shown.
A typical test set up is shown in Figure 3 below. Here the transmitter baseband source is either a user designed baseband
system, or a programmable arbitrary waveform generator (AWG). A two channel AWG can create any form of vector modulation
(I and Q baseband) with appropriate programming or selectable standard modulation formats (such as BPSK, QPSK, etc.).
The receiver baseband scheme is again either user dened or a signal analysis test system.
By using a programmable AWG for the transmitter baseband source, user dened vector modulation schemes can be created
along with various error correction coding, equalization testing, etc. Most AWG products available today work with MATLAB
and other tools that provide a convenient method of baseband signal generation.
