xSDR is a compact, single-sided M.2 software-defined radio designed for seamless integration into modern computing platforms. The “x” stands for extended; xSDR delivers extended bandwidth in the same minimal footprint as our previous model, uSDR. With 2x2 MIMO RX/TX channels, a wide 30 MHz–3.8 GHz tuning range, and up to 122.88 MSPS sampling and an updated FPGA, xSDR is a flexible platform for embedded RF, wireless research, signal intelligence, and rapid prototyping.
Crowd Supply is a store, distributor, and crowdfunding platform. Our mission is to bring original, useful, respectful hardware to life.

![Teardown Session 46: Thunderscope Launch with Aleksa Bjelogrlic
** Many thanks to this Teardown Sessions sponsor: AMD! **
In this episode of the Teardown Sessions, Crowd Supplys Helen Leigh celebrates the launch of the Thunderscope oscilloscope with Aleksa Bjelogrlic.
*About ThunderScope*
ThunderScope packs the power of expensive, bulky high-end oscilloscopes into a portable and affordable package. While traditional scopes are limited by their built-in processing capabilities and cramped user interfaces, ThunderScope is designed to stream the complete 1 GS/s of sample data in real time to your computer for processing and analysis. ThunderScope’s fast connections (via Thunderbolt, USB 4, and PCI Express) and unique software-defined architecture allows it to be used for everything from simple measurements to complex protocol analysis.
*About Our Guest*
[Via Hackaday] Aleksa is an electrical engineer who loves test equipment and open-source hardware. For the last several years, he combined those two passions to design an open-source oscilloscope from the ground up to be faster, more flexible, and accessible to all.
