Method of manufacturing a radio frequency receiver module
A method of manufacturing a radio frequency receiver module includes supporting a baseband processor on a base. A feature choice for the module is determined. The feature choice includes an antenna type, an RF type, or a stack type. An optional hardware component is selectively installed or omitted on the base dependent upon the determined feature choice.
1. A method of manufacturing a radio frequency receiver module, said method comprising the steps of:
providing a base;
supporting a baseband processor on the base;
determining a first feature choice for the module, the first feature choice comprising one of:
an antenna;
a receiver; and
a stack of digital information;
selectively installing or omitting a first optional hardware component on the base dependent upon the determining step;
ascertaining a second feature choice for the module, the second feature choice comprising one of:
an audio format;
a ribbon cable connector;
a market in which the module will operate;
a memory size; and
a radio frequency connector; and
selectively installing or omitting a second optional hardware component on the base dependent upon the ascertaining step.
2. The method of claim 1 wherein the audio format comprises SPDIF audio format or I2S audio format.
3. The method of claim 1 wherein the ribbon cable connector comprises a J100 ribbon cable connector or a J101 ribbon cable connector.
4. The method of claim 1 wherein the market in which the module will operate comprises a geographic area to which the module is to be delivered.
5. The method of claim 1 wherein the memory size comprises a size of a memory device that is electrically connected to the baseband processor.
6. The method of claim 1 wherein the radio frequency connector comprises a connector that is adapted to receive an RF signal from an antenna.
7. A method of manufacturing a radio frequency receiver module, said method comprising the steps of:
providing a base;
supporting a baseband processor on the base;
determining a first feature choice for the module, the first feature choice comprising one of:
an antenna;
a receiver; and
a stack of digital information;
selectively installing a first optional hardware component on the base dependent upon the determining step;
selectively omitting a second optional hardware component on the base dependent upon the determining step;
ascertaining a second feature choice for the module, the second feature choice comprising one of:
an audio format;
a ribbon cable connector;
a market in which the module will operate;
a memory size; and
a radio frequency connector; and
selectively installing or omitting a third optional hardware component on the base dependent upon the ascertaining step.
8. The method of claim 7 wherein the audio format comprises SPDIF audio format or I2S audio format, and the ribbon cable connector comprises a J100 ribbon cable connector or a J101 ribbon cable connector.
9. The method of claim 7 wherein the market in which the module will operate comprises a geographic area to which the module is to be delivered.
10. The method of claim 7 wherein the memory size comprises a size of a memory device that is electrically connected to the baseband processor.
11. The method of claim 7 wherein the radio frequency connector comprises a connector that is adapted to receive an RF signal from an antenna.
