HPSDR Documentation

This newly created section will eventually contain links for downloading all documentation for HPSDR Projects.

Please bear with us as this area comes together.

More documentation and resources are available at Resources (Software links) and Support (Hardware documentation).

Atlas

Atlas Backplane , Rev 1.4, June 2006

This is the backplane into which all other board are pluged for power and communications.

Pinocchio

Pinocchio Extender Board, Rev 1.0, July 2006.

Pinocchio Extender Board, Rev 1.0, July 2006

This board allows the experimenter to extend the HPSDR board above the other boards so that measurments can be taken while the system is in use. Mainly used by board developers.

Penelope

Penelope with PowerSDR , Rev 1.2, May 2008.

Penelope with PowerSDR, Rev 1.2, May 2008

The manual describes how to physically set up Penelope as well as how to set up PowerSDR to use Penelope. Revision 1.1 contains corrections to the pin-out of the DB-25 connector (changed pin 7 to 17 as one of the analog grounds and added pin 21 as digital ground). Additionally we note that the current version of PowerSDR for Penelope contains a bug that, on start-up, will immediately make Penelope transmit in voice modes. A work-around to avoid this is described in Appendix A.

Revision 1.2 contains an additional section explaining why no Transmit Image Rejection is necessary and that therefore the corresponding Phase and Gain controls should both be set to zero.
