brick2 hermes 16-bit ltc2208

Brick2 SDR 16-bit is a continuation of the transceiver Brick2 SDR ie. Hermes-Lite EU1SW, but with another more powerful ADC with 16 bits. Has a main board, on which all elements are located, such as LNA, Step ATT 0-31 dB, including power amplifier and 7 LPF.

The power amplifier is made according to a push-pull scheme on a pair of RD16HHF. The output power on 160-10m 10-15 watts, 6m 8-10 watts.

Can be used up to 4 rigs in one network.

The SW is still under development. There are some functions of controlling externals PA:

  • Serial interface for Hardrock-50 TTL 3.3V (need tested).
  • Band voltage for Xiegu XPA125B.
  • Decimal (BCD) as Yaesu, Elecraft.
