Description
The Pico Macom MPCD is a frequency agile professional grade, microprocessor controlled CATV mini demodulator. The unit accepts any NTSC television signal in the 54-806MHz frequency-range converting it to baseband video and audio, while maintaining over 60dB S/N ratio. Up to 12 or 16 units can be installed “mix-and match” in Pico’s MPC12, MPS12, MPC12R and MPC16 chassis with MPCM45 and MPCMA mini-modulators. Its unique design enables it to be installed in other manufacturers’ mini-mod chassis. The unit’s phase-locked-loop frequency control, envelope signal detection, and superior SAW filtering minimize adjacent channel interference and assure accurate and spurious free performance. IRC or HRC offsets can be activated via push-button switches on the front panel. The unit’s PLL circuitry in conjunction with the non-volatile memory contained in the microprocessor ensures easy and reliable channel selection and restoration. The MPCD demodulator is shipped with all internal adjustments preset. Pico Macom backs up this product with its industry leading 5-year limited warranty.
