DK7IH QRP Shop. Welcome! – DK7IH QRP Engineering

Dear visitors of my website!

Due to high receipt of orders I regret that I have to postpone any new orders until further notice. DK7IH QRP-Shop is a one-man business and not my main occupation. Thus any new orders currently can not be processed. Pending orders will be handled as normal. Thank you very much for your understanding!

Peter (DK7IH)

Si5351 Universal VFO/LO for multiband transceiver

This VFO/LO can be used for a multiband transceiver project. It covers 160m, 80m, 40m, 20m, 17m, 15m, 12m and 10m band. The software can drive either a Nokia5110 b/w display or an ST7735 colored unit. There 8 driver stages for setting band relays in a band pass filter unit (BPF) and (in parallel) the low pass filters following the final amplifier stage.

If a gain controlled transmitter amplifier is used, the VFO provides a gain value (DC voltage) that can be set manually for each band individually to compensate gain loss when higher bands are used. A T/R relay also is on board.

Analog inputs are freely configureable: User keys, S-Value, TX output power measurement, indicator for TX mode. More on request!

Power supply is 12 to 14V DC.

AD9951 VFO module (0.1 to 60MHz)

These oscillators are really high-performance concerning usable bandwidth AND signal purity. They can be used to build a VFO with a large frequency span (up to 60MHz with on-board 200MHz clock oscillator or higher depending on master clock rate).

3 Versions are available:

AD9951 with ATMega328 MCU
AD9951, no MCU, no amplifier (“bare bones”)
AD9951 with INA52063 amplifier, no MCU

For more details, please refer to the respective article in English.

Main features of this project:

Integrated DDS-chip: AD9951.
Max. output frequency: 60MHz.
Output waveform: Sinewave.
Supply voltage: 5V (3.3V on request).
Master clocks that can be used must be 3.3V types. All clock rates between 50 and 400 MHz are allowed. For oscillators with lower frequencies the software that you will get for free when buying the module contains a clock multiplier routine. For example with an 100MHz oscillator you can achieve a 400MHz clock rate.
Output impedance: 50 ohms, low pass filtered.
Output voltage: 300mVpp.to 500mV approx., +/- 3 dB over full bandwidth without INA52063 amplifier, about 2Vpp. with INA52063.

Version 1: Complete VFO with microcontroller on board

Universal DDS VFO (f_max = 60 MHz) for use in homemade QRP transceiver with MCU (ATMega168 or 328) on board.

This board contains an AD9951 DDS chip by Analog devices and an ATMega168 (ATMega328 available on request, add +1.5€/USD) or other MCU (please ask for pricing!)

All connectors not used for the DDS are connected to header strips so that they can be accessed by the user which makes this board very versatile.

Pricing:

110 to 125 €/USD ready-to-use module (depending on MCU of your choice)
12€/US$ board only

Please see the respective page for detailed info on this project! If you should have further questions, please do not hesitate asking with peter(at)dk7ih.de.

Version 2: VFO for external microcontroller

This module is designed for an external microcontroller (3.3 or 5V type). Thus control lines of this module can be driven by any microcontroller (Arduino included) running an appropriate SPI software. A software written in “Embedded C” for various microcontrollers (AVR or STM32) is available and will be provided for free when you buy this VFO. Please ask for details with peter(at)dk7ih.de.

Pricing:

90€/USD ready-to-use module
10€/US$ board only

Version 3: VFO for external microcontroller plus out amplifier (INA52063)

This version adds an MMIC amplifier (1.5GHz max. bandwidth) by Hewlett-Packard to enhance signal amplitude to about 1.5 to 2 Vpp.

100€/USD ready-to-use module

Crystal controlled local oscillator

Detailed description

A simple circuit to provide carrier and SSB demodulation signal for an SSB (or CW) QRP radio. Size about 35 by 27 millimeters. Uses standard transistors and 1 crystal. A tuning capacitor (standard trimmer) and a tapped coil (to be extra purchases) switched for the desired sideband serve as tuning elements for the respective correct frequency.
