PXIe Frequency Conversion for RF Signal Chain Integration

YSC-7061U and YSC-7061D form a compact PXIe-based frequency conversion solution for RF development, subsystem integration, and automated test platforms. The up-converter provides RF output from 400 MHz to 6 GHz, while the down-converter supports RF input from 20 MHz to 6 GHz.

Both modules use a 3U two-slot PXIe architecture and support parameter configuration, functional control, status monitoring, and reference clock configuration through the PXIe control interface with C/C++ host integration and Windows 10 compatibility.
