## Overview

The NESDR Nano 3 is a premium, ultra-compact RTL-SDR dongle featuring a high-precision 0.5PPM temperature-controlled crystal oscillator, a robust aluminum enclosure with EMI shielding, and a versatile articulating SMA connector compatible with SMA and MCX antennas. Designed for seamless integration in tight USB spaces, it supports a wide frequency range (25MHz-1700MHz) and is compatible with major SDR software across multiple platforms. Built in North America and backed by a 2-year warranty, it’s the go-to SDR for professionals seeking portable, reliable, and interference-resistant radio signal reception.

## Description

Say goodbye to blocked USB ports! The tiny NESDR Nano 3 is the ideal SDR for portable and embedded applications. Quad SDRs on a Raspberry Pi? USB OTG? Not a problem for the NESDR Nano 3! The Nano 3 is just 17mm x 8mm x 20mm weighs only 15g!The Nano 3 is built into a high-quality brushed aluminum enclosure. In conjunction with the 2 internal silicone heat pads, this ensures that heat is removed from board-level and to the exterior where it belongs. The aluminum enclosure ensures that EMI is kept out out of the sensitive SDR circuitry, and emissions from the digital circuitry are contained within the SDR enclosure. The latter is especially important in EMI sensitive environments like automotive and flight applications!An articulating, right-angle female SMA connector is included to allow you to attach both male SMA and male MCX antennas directly to your SDR. The NESDR Nano 3 contains the same custom TCXO we include in our NESDR SMArt series. This 0.5PPM, ultra-low phase-noise TCXO is by far the highest performance TCXO available in ANY low-cost SDR. We are so confident of the reliability and stability of this SDR that we offer a full 2-year warranty--the longest in the industry. CAUTION: The enclosure will get hot! This is by design, and will not affect performance of the SDR. Please be cautious when touching the SDR after prolonged usage! A custom heatsink, which can optionally be affixed to either side of the SDR to further improve heat dissipation, is included with your purchase. This RTL-SDR is based on the R820T2 tuner IC made by Rafael Micro, which means an approximate tuning range of 25MHz-1700MHz . There is also an RTL2832U IC on board to provide basic demodulation and USB interface functionality. Full compatibility with a wide variety of popular SDR software packages, such as Matlab, CubicSDR, HDSDR, SDR Touch, Planeplotter for Windows, Mac, Linux, Android & Raspberry Pi.

## Features

- No more blocked USB ports! This RTL-SDR was designed into a tiny form factor to ensure proper fit within the smallest USB-compliant spacing. The Nano 3 is just 17mm x 8mm x 20mm & 15g!
- The high-quality aluminum enclosure and silicone pads ensure that heat and stray EMI stay where they belong
- The included articulating SMA connector allows for connection of both male SMA and male MCX antenna types without additional expenditures
- The industry-leading 0.5PPM temperature-controlled crystal oscillator (TCXO) ensures that you will always be able to find the signal you need with absolute minimal drift and jitter
- Proudly built in North America in our US & Canadian facilities. Full 2 year product warranty!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Where can I get the enclosure?**
A: Hi!  The SDR is installed in the enclosure, it is not required to purchase it separately.  

Perhaps you meant you want to purchase for a different version of the NESDR Nano?  If that's the case (ha!), sorry, but the PCB was completely redesigned and is a different size.  The enclosure will not fit other SDR models.

**Q: Will this work with OTG?**
A: Works on OnePlus 7T (type-c usb3.1) with i-teknik USB-C hub. Did not work with a cheaper USB-C to usb-a OTG adapter. This also did not work in my OnePlus with type-c USB2.0 port with either hub or adapter.

**Q: Can I buy just the Aluminum Enclosure and heatsinks?**
A: No, they are not available for sale separately, sorry.  They are designed specifically for the Nano 3 circuit board, which is a much smaller size than our previous models.  Thank you

**Q: Will this work with radioconda and/or sdr angel?**
A: Yes, thanks!
