Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Max temperature for usrp2

[Jordan J Riggs]

The brute-force method to answering your question is probably to look at the operating temperature ranges in the datasheets for the major cmoponents. A few things come to mind: the SD card (one of the cheaper components, I suspect), the ethernet cable, and the resistors. These all might start misbehaving at those temperatures. Could you keep the USRP in something like a styroam cooler with ice on the bottom?

The length of cable would have to be 100 ft; my signal becomes attenuated excessively.

Why not just run some hefty cable from the test environment to the USRP? Sounds fun, though!

Hi all-

I'm about to conduct some measurements on a running GE aircraft jet engine with the USRP2.  The test cell temps could reach 150 F.  Is that going to fry my USRP?

Thanks,
eric
