USRP™ B200mini Series

Product Overview

The USRP B200mini Series delivers a 1x1 software defined

radio/cognitive radio in the size of a business card. With

a wide frequency range from 70 MHz to 6 GHz and a user-

programmable Xilinx Spartan-6 FPGA, this flexible and

compact platform is ideal for both hobbyist and OEM

applications. The RF front end uses the Analog Devices

AD9364 RFIC transceiver with 56 MHz of instantaneous

bandwidth. The board is bus-powered by a high-speed USB

3.0 connection for streaming data to the host computer.

The USRP B200mini Series also includes connectors for

GPIO, JTAG, and synchronization with a 10 MHz clock

reference or PPS time reference input signal. There are

three configurations in this product family with options

for a larger or industrial-grade FPGA. The USRP Hardware

Driver™ (UHD) software API supports all USRP products

and enables users to efficiently develop applications

then seamlessly transition designs between platforms as

requirements expand.

Applications

Hobbyists and New Users

The powerful UHD software API reduces the learning curve

and provides a quick start experience for new users and long-

time hobbyists interested in AM/FM applications, cellular

communication, and algorithm exploration.

Wireless Signal Discovery and Analysis

The content-rich GNU Radio community provides a wide range

of tools and algorithms that enable discovery and analysis of

air interface protocols.

OEM and Integration

The compact form factor and cost-effective design of the

B200mini Series make it ideal for integration into larger

systems for prototyping and deployment. The 10 MHz ref/

PPS and GPIO features provide seamless synchronization and
