Start date: 10/12/2024Duration: 24 MonthsPhotonic integrated circuits embed complex optical systems in compact chips manufactured in semiconductor foundries. The availability of high-speed modulation, ultra-low propagation losses, and discovery of the optical microcomb have revolutionized many aspects of integrated photonics in the last 15 years. In particular, new applications in microwave photonics by translating electronic signals to…Prime contractor

Start date: 15/12/2023Duration: 24 MonthsThe scope of the project is the design of an IC integrated circuit (single die) that implements the front-end receiver section of GNSS multi-band signal receiver space-born platforms. The frontend receiver includes all the circuits from the antenna to the ADC output and provides the digitalised output to the GNSS units base-band processors or SW receivers. The target applications are all GNSS… -
To address higher requirements in the GNSS market, in particular the reception of signals with higher bandwidth and poor amplitude levels, Saphyrion has developed, through an ESA contract the next generation of GNSS RF-Front-end ASICs, called SY1009 and the SY2001. The SY1009 is a radiation hardened L-band RF down-converter for GNSS receivers. The SY2001 is a radiation hardened fractional-N PLL…
