FC5 is AD8307 based RF meter to 500MHZ and a
500MHZ Frequency counter using MC12080 as a prescaler. This
"add-on" project board fits on top of GCPUx main board to
create a 500MHZ RF Meter cum Frequency counter. Measurement results are
displayed on 128X64 Graphic LCD. A PC program will be available too.
GCPUx, PIC18F4550 CPU
board used in this project, is an expandable CPU and Graphic LCD
project which has provision to "add" a "project"
board to create a full function amateur radio station accessory. FC5
is a project board add-on for GCPUx Board.
Advantage of concept "GCPUx" is a
possibility to add a new project board, change processor code
and create a new working unit for ham station.
A
battery board is included with this kit. You may use a NiMh or NiCad
batteries with 7.2V output. Battery (NiMH or NiCad) not included as
