    5 !WiBo is a RF front-end board for Orbit Noise Generator designed around a Maxim, Inc. MAX2829ETN+D radio transceiver chip. Schematic is [attachment:WiBi-103-Schematics.pdf attached]. It is manufactured as a 4.00 x 4.00” printed circuit board (PCB).
     5!WiBo is a RF front-end board for Orbit Noise Generator designed around a Maxim, Inc. MAX2829ETN+D radio transceiver chip. Schematic is [attachment:WiBi-103-Schematics.pdf attached]. BiBo’s ADC (analog-to-digital conversion) and DAC (digital-to-analog) conversion comes from an Analog Devices AD9860 MxFE processor. Digital RADIO_IO_x signals come from a Xilinx Spartan 3. It is manufactured as a 4.00 x 4.00” printed circuit board (PCB).
