HAROGIC Launches Compact Embedded RF Transmitter with Integrated Raspberry Pi 5 from 10 MHz to 6 GHz

HAROGIC has introduced the T1060, a compact embedded RF transmitter that combines wideband RF generation, onboard computing, waveform playback and network control in a single platform. Covering 10 MHz to 6 GHz with up to 100 MHz bandwidth, the transmitter targets custom waveform generation, wireless scenario simulation, remote RF testing and system integration.

Compact RF Platform for Flexible Deployment

Measuring 86 × 77 × 36 mm and weighing 281 g, the T1060 integrates an RF transmit chain, FPGA, DAC, waveform storage, clock synchronization and a Raspberry Pi 5-based embedded computer. The device can be remotely controlled over 1 GbE or operated independently using locally stored waveforms, scripts and applications.

The transmitter covers 10 MHz to 6 GHz and offers phase noise as low as −124 dBc/Hz at a 10 kHz offset from a 1 GHz carrier. Output power ranges from ≤ −100 dBm to 7–14 dBm depending on frequency, while an optional medium-power version provides at least 25 dBm. At 0 dBm output, typical harmonics are ≤ −50 dBc, with amplitude accuracy within 2 dB.

Wideband Waveform Playback and Open Development

The T1060 uses a 16-bit DAC with IQ sample rates up to 125 MS/s. FPGA memory playback supports up to 100 MHz bandwidth using a 128 MB buffer, while continuous IQ streaming from the Raspberry Pi 5 supports up to 50 MHz bandwidth. This enables reproduction of transient and wideband signals as well as longer-duration waveforms with dynamic updates.

HAROGIC’s SGStudio software supports device configuration, signal generation and custom waveform playback. A unified API provides integration with C/C++, C#, Python, MATLAB, Qt, LabVIEW and GNU Radio on Windows and Linux, allowing existing test and automation workflows to be reused.

Networked and Remote RF Testing

The T1060 is designed for distributed and unattended RF applications. Waveforms and tasks can be stored locally, allowing preconfigured operations to continue even when the external network is temporarily unavailable. Its 1 GbE, reference-clock and AUXIO interfaces support remote systems, fixed installations and OEM integration.

Key applications include custom waveform reproduction, synchronized wireless and radar scenario simulation, and remote RF transmission. Multiple nodes can coordinate stimulus tasks using network triggers, reference clocks or GNSS synchronization, reducing dependence on centralized real-time data transfer.

Record-and-Playback RF Validation

The T1060 can also work with HAROGIC’s R1000 series embedded RF receivers. Signals recorded in the field can be imported into the transmitter and reproduced in the laboratory, creating a workflow spanning field recording, laboratory reproduction, algorithm regression testing and system integration testing. This allows development teams to recreate real-world RF conditions and validate system or algorithm changes.

With RF generation, waveform processing, embedded computing and network control integrated into one compact node, the T1060 is positioned as a bridge between laboratory RF instrumentation and field-deployable test systems. Its architecture is intended to simplify deployment while allowing development and validation workflows to transition more directly into operational environments.
