The CML Micro, DE9180 kit demonstrates in a ‘portable radio’ form factor all the features of the DRM1000 including reception from 150KHz to 108MHz of AM, FM and Digital Radio Mondiale (DRM) signals. Powered from either a 5-volt supply or 3 off primary cell batteries the kit can support a variety of antenna and test equipment connections and can be used to fully test the DRM1000 receiver performance. Receiver power consumption, sensitivity, selectivity, and signal handling can all be checked. In addition, the DE9180 allows evaluation of the DRM1000 push-button based user interface. An on-board serial data connection allows full control by a connected PC or external µController. The DRM1000 supports customization of provided features via a persistent-store registry. The serial connection allows the persistent-store to be read and modified to suit the users intended feature set. Additional support includes access to a Python based command line tool (including source code) and a tool for the display of Journaline data that is sent as part of the DRM broadcast signal. Full schematics and board layout information is also provided.
