Features
- Three modules
- QRP Labs High Performance Receiver Module
- Direct Conversion Receiver
- Uses a Quadrature Sampling Detector (QSD), also known as a Tayloe Detector
- FST3253 Mixer is arranged as a double-balanced mixer for maximum performance
- Circuit to mute receiver during transmit
- Low noise LM4562 op-amps are used in instrumentation amplifier configuration to provide excellent common mode noise rejection
- The audio output of the module is isolated using two 600:600-ohm transformers to reduce or eliminate the ground loop problems which can easily occur in SDR systems
- The module is designed to directly drive a stereo input sound-card or with a polyphase filter card
- Receiver board has a socket for the standard QRP Labs Band Pass Filter kit which can be routed to an external bandpass filter switch card
- Build instructions
- QRP Labs Band Pass Filter
- Can be used with a Switched Bandpass filter board for multiband operation
- 10/15/20/40/80M QRP Labs Band Pass Filter Kits
- QRP Labs Polyphase filter
- Polyphase network plug-in module kit which cancels the unwanted sideband and produces a single sideband (SSB) output
- Build instructions
- QRP Labs High Performance Receiver Module
- Band Pass Filter and Polyphase filter mount on Receiver Module
- The receiver requires a local oscillator (LO) input at 4x the receive frequency
- Using VFO-003 with 4x output option
- Power supply
- Needs 5V supply
- Opamps can be powered from 5V or 12-14V (for higher dynamic range)
- The receiver module is sized 80 x 37mm
Silkscreen / Pinout
Pins

- Tx Mute Input
- 5V mutes inputs
- LO input
- 3.3V from Si5351A oscillators
- IF input
- From external Bandpass Filter Switch
