[GSG-announce] Introducing HackRF Pro

[Maggie May]

Meet HackRF Pro!


We’re thrilled to announce HackRF Pro, the newest addition to the Great 
Scott Gadgets family of Software Defined Radio (SDR) platforms!

Building on the legacy of HackRF One, HackRF Pro is an SDR peripheral 
that enables transmission or reception of radio signals from 100 kHz to 
6 GHz. Like its predecessor, HackRF Pro is open source hardware and 
designed for versatility, whether you’re developing wireless tech, 
researching the security of wireless devices, tinkering as a hobbyist, 
learning or teaching about the RF spectrum, or building advanced custom 
firmware.

Preliminary specifications:
100 kHz to 6 GHz operating frequency
Tunable from 0 Hz to 7.1 GHz
Half-duplex transceiver
Up to 20 million samples per second
8-bit quadrature samples (8-bit I and 8-bit Q)
Compatible with GNU Radio, SDR#, and more
Software-configurable RX and TX gain and baseband filter
Software-controlled RF port power (50 mA at 3.3 V)
SMA RF connector
SMA clock input and output for synchronization and triggering
Convenient buttons for programming
Internal pin headers for expansion
High-Speed USB 2.0 with Type-C connector
USB-powered
Open source hardware

Compared to HackRF One, HackRF Pro introduces a host of new and updated 
features, including:
Wider operating frequency range
Improved RF performance with flatter frequency response
Modern USB Type-C connector
Built-in TCXO crystal oscillator for superior timing stability
Logic upgrade from a CPLD to a power-efficient FPGA
Elimination of the DC spike
Extended-precision mode with 16-bit samples for low sample rates 
(typical ENOB: 9-11)
Half-precision mode with 4-bit samples at up to 40 Msps
More RAM and flash memory for custom firmware
Installed shielding around the radio section
Trigger input and output accessible through clock connectors
Cutout in the PCB provides space for future add-ons
Improved power management
Enhanced RF port protection
Facility to hardware-disable transmit mode

HackRF Pro maintains backward compatibility with HackRF One—meaning your 
existing software stack will work right out of the box! But we’re not 
stopping there. We’ll also be releasing a migration guide for developers 
who want to unlock HackRF Pro’s enhanced capabilities.

Please note: HackRF Pro comes in a sleek injection-molded plastic 
enclosure. USB cable and antenna are not included, but we recommend 
ANT500 as a great starter antenna.

You can preorder HackRF Pro from our authorized resellers right now! 
Production will kick off in July 2025 with initial shipment taking place 
in September 2025.

List of resellers and additional information about HackRF Pro can be 
found on our HackRF Pro page.
