Bascom Hunter’s Wideband RF Digitizer Card is a high-performance RF digitization module built for rugged embedded SATCOM, SIGINT, electronic warfare, and mission processing systems. Designed in a SOSA aligned 3U VPX form factor, the card captures multiple independent L-band signals and converts them into high-speed digital data enabling open architecture processing, digital IF distribution, and multi-function processor (MFP) integration.

The card supports four independent RF inputs across the 950 MHz to 2150 MHz frequency range, with each channel processed and quantized at 14-bit resolution and a 5 GHz sampling rate. Built around a Xilinx/AMD Zynq UltraScale+ RFSoC, the module combines high-speed RF data conversion, FPGA-based signal processing, and flexible firmware customization optimized for open mission systems.
