Fully Assembled Clifford Heath Version HackRF with PortaPack H2M Authorized Signature Edition and 10.00MHZ TCXO
Clifford Heath's Github link: https://github.com/cjheath/hackrf
Added protection against excessive RF at the antenna port (Tx and Rx),
Updated receive and transmit LNA
Improved Bias-T performance
Updated other components to current-production parts (RF switches, USB & CLKIN/CLKOUT protection)
The Specific hardware improvements in the March 2024 release notes:
Added strong protection to the antenna port using the SMP1330-085LF. This is designed to provide protection for both the transmit amplifier and the receive LNA.
Improved the Bias T so it operates well at a much higher frequency, which should improve RF sensitivity (whether the bias T is enabled or not).
Replaced the seven SKY13350-385LF parts with SKY-13453-385LF (current production part)
Replaced the two MGA-81563-TR1G MMIC amplifiers with TRF37B73 (current production part)
Updated protection on the USB port with current production USB6B1 not LXES15AAA1-100
Updated protection on CLKIN and CLKOUT with current production BAS70 not LXES1TBCC2-004
Reduced the number of drill sizes from fourteen (14) down to six (6), with all vias being 27/13 mil, to make the PCB cheaper to produce.
Added two extra fiducials to help parts placement.
