The Nightingale Development Kit provides an integrated design experience identical to the most common flight configurations, providing a complete bits-to-RF development solution. The development kit supports standard lab cable connections, antenna hats for lab testing, and includes mounting points for use in an RF antenna range.
Includes the active phased array and digital modules found in a typical Nightingale 1 flight configuration.
Access both digital and RF signals to each module through standard connector interfaces.
Under-mount fans provide a constant flow of air, cooling the modules and enabling 24/7 operation on the bench.
Access the modules through USB-to-serial interface, Ethernet, or JTAG, enabling high- and-low level development.
The active phased array antenna includes common mounting patterns for RF range install and operation.
Design and test flight software in the lab, including RF. The integrated antenna hat enables many tests outside the RF range.
A precision-machined aluminum chassis with integrated heat spreaders and fans enable clutter-free development in the lab and RF range.
Download DatasheetThe Nightingale Development Kit integrates an active phased array into its own enclosure with a second enclosure containing power conditioning (DC/DC converter), SBC, SDR, and RF up- and down-conversion.
