  902-928MHz high-performance AMR mobile receiver. This receiver has very high dynamic range (low noise figure and high 3rd order intercept) and was designed to receive weak utility meter transmitters in severe radio environments. This receiver operates in a frequency hopping mode under local microprocessor control with an AFC feature that allows the received FM data to be centered in the discriminator for fewer bit errors. Using robust ceramic dielectric filters this receiver can operate in the presence of high power transmitters.

UWB microwave receiver that operates in the 4.5-7GHz band and was designed for a radar imaging application. Its features include a 2dB noise figure, variable gain control, RSSI output, wideband I&Q outputs and self-contained power supplies. All of the microstrip structures; filters, amplifiers, splitters, demodulators, detectors, and switches were designed in-house as well as the machined housing. This project took four months to complete and the met the customers specifications on the first turn.

  418MHz ISM band OOK receiver designed for remote activation applications. This unit has a decoder that can be programmed to respond to one of 1024 codes and operates from a single 3.0V lithium battery. This unit provided over 300 foot range when used with our transmitter.
 
   

 
  The superregenerative receiver is still the lowest cost receiver type available and more superregenerative receivers are in use today than any other type in applications from remote meter reading to garage door openers. This 315MHz model has a 1000 piece build cost of less than $2.00. This design can be configured to work in the 30-1000MHz range.
