Command & data handling (C&DH)
Integrated circuits and reference designs for command and data handling systems, complete with schematics, test data and design files:
Communications payload
Integrated circuits and reference designs for communications payload systems, complete with schematics, test data and design files:
Optical imaging payload
Imaging satellites continuously monitor the planet for various tasks such as weather, mapping, or surveillance.
Radar imaging payload
Our space qualified integrated circuits and reference designs help you create next-generation radar payloads to monitor surface conditions from space with maximum performance.
Satellite electrical power system (EPS)
Satellites harness power from solar panels to power the spacecraft. This high voltage supply needs to be stored and converted for all the on board electronics.
