Per Vices Corporation, a provider of software defined radios (SDRs), has released Calamine, the company’s latest and widest tuning range SDR. 

Calamine builds on the Per Vices existing IP to offer an impressive tuning range from near DC to 40 GHz with four independent receive radio chains each offering 300 MSPS sampling bandwidth.

The latest release will offer capabilities extending other SDR systems for use by government, defense/intelligence communities and civil customers with direct applications for radar systems, signals intelligence, spectrum monitoring, and satellite communications systems.

Per Vices products aim to provide hardware and software solutions to address the growing need for high channel count, wide tuning range, and high bandwidth SDRs. According to Per Vices, Calamine sets a new standard for tuning range demanded by the market.

Victor Wollesen, CEO of Per Vices, said; “There has been a growing need in RF for operating at higher frequency ranges within sacrificing the ability to tune to lower frequencies as well. Our latest release of Calamine offers a perfect solution to address this need with multiple channels and high sampling bandwidths all within a compact 19” 2U form factor.

“We’re very excited to be offering this product to our customers as we know it is critical for many different applications.”
