(sound card dependent... measured with Infrasonic Quartet PCI sound card)
K3 includes N8LP buffer mod. Noise floor and single tone dynamic range are about 6dB worse without K3 buffer mod.
* Approx. –130 to –135dBm dBm noise floor with K3 preamp on
* +2dBm maximum input with K3 attenuator on
* ~115dBm single tone dynamic range from noise floor to clipping point
* 50-70dB typical image rejection with PowerSDR-IF, 100dB+ with PowerSDR-IQ.
* Better than +20dBm IP3 with two –15dBm signals spaced 2 - 20 kHz (composite value for K3/LP-PAN combo)
* THD ~ 0.005%
* L.O. leakage, –110 dBm to –140 dBm (buffer inside K3 provides additional ~50dB)
* 600 ohm output Z, balanced or unbalanced.
* +2dBV (1.27 Vrms, 3.6V p-p) nominal output level at recommended maximum RF input
* 8215 kHz L.O. standard (8209 kHz starting with 3
rd
run). 8830 kHz, 9000 kHz, 4920 kHz and 10.7MHz also available
* 11-16 VDC @ 53 mA
* Dimensions: 5.125”(13.02cm) Deep x 5.375”(13.65cm) Wide x 2.125”(5.4cm) High
Note: Specifications dependent on sound card, and subject to change. Cited values were taken with a Infrasonic Quartet PCI sound
card, but the results are similar with E-MU 0202 USB or E-MU 1212m sound cards. All measurements also apply to M-Audio Firewire
Audiophile card (up to 96 kHz) or Audiophile 2496 PCI card (up to 96 kHz). Measurement details are included in the Performance
