The HSP50215EVAL Kit provides the necessary tools to evaluate the HSP50215 Digital Upconverter integrated circuit and consists of a circuit board and a software program. The kit is designed for evaluation of Digital Quadrature Amplitude, FM, and Shaped FM modulation for IF Communications Applications. The circuit board uses baseband I and Q data patterns loaded through the 8-bit parallel interface or the ISAbus interface. Data is output as either a digital or analog modulated composite IF signal. Up to four channels can be included in the composite IF output. To facilitate the use of the board during evaluation, the kit includes example files for configuration, shaping filters and input stimulus.

FEATUREs
• Multi-Channel Composite IF Output with 1-4 Channels
• Digital or Analog Composite Output
• Baseband Pattern Stimulus Files with Lengths to 64Kbits
• Example Baseband Patterns for BPSK, QPSK, π/4QPSK, 16QAM, FM, GMSK and AWG Noise
• Baseband Patterns Loaded to RAM Via PC ISAbus or Parallel Port, for Use as Modulator Baseband Data
• DOS Based Configuration/Status Software

APPLICATIONs
• Evaluation Tool for the Performance of the Digital UpConverter Configured as PSK, Quadrature Amplitude (QAM), FM and Shaped FM (MSK) Modulators at Rates from <1 KBPS to 1.5 MBPS
• Performance Evaluation Tool for Digital Upconversion
• Communications Test Equipment
