Welcome to OsmoSDR

OsmoSDR is a 100% Free Software based small form-factor inexpensive SDR (Software Defined Radio) project.

If you are familiar with existing SDR receivers, then OsmoSDR can be thought of something in between a FunCubeDongle? (only 96kHz bandwidth) and a USRP (much more expensive).

It consists of a USB-attached Hardware, associated Firmware as well as gnuradio integration on the PC.

The hardware is currently in prototype stage. As soon as it is finished, we will make it available through  http://shop.sysmocom.de/

OsmoSDR hardware verification at 28C3

At  28c3, the OsmoSDR team was busy verifying the hardware design on the first prototypes.

The result can be summarized as:

• SAM3U is working, enumerates on USB and can be programmed via SAM-BA
• E4K tuner driver is working
• Si570 driver is working
• FPGA can be flashed via JTAG bit-banging from SAM3 ...

Hardware schematics and firmware source code are kept in a git repository on git.osmocom.org.

• clone the repository like this: git clone git://git.osmocom.org/osmo-sdr.git
