Micross diodes are hermetic, non-cavity, double-plug construction with category I metallurgical bonds, and available in standard axial & surface-mount packages, or custom as required. Listed on the DLA Land & Maritime QPL list and suitable for operation from -65°C to 175°C, Micross Hi-Rel Diodes are qualified to JAN, JANTX, JANTXV, and JANS (Space) quality levels. Meet us at Satellite 2024, Mar 19-21.

CANES will replace existing afloat computer and networking infrastructure for applications, systems, and services for tactical cyber warfare.
The Aireon-led coalition, comprising organizations such as Iridium, NAV CANADA, NATS, AirNav Ireland, ENAV, and Naviair, aims to develop the concept of operations for space-based...
These weapon sights help soldiers fight at night and in low-light by pointing weapons accurately based on the target's thermal signatures.
Delivery of the first flight unit is scheduled for December 2027, the second by June 2029, and the third unit is designated as a spare flight unit for the initial two missions...

The ADRV9009-ZU11EG is a highly integrated RF System-On-Module(RF-SOM) based on dual Analog Devices ADRV9009 wideband transceivers. When combined with the ADRV2CRR-FMC carrier board, this hardware platform can be used for prototyping and reducing time to market for application specific designs offering 4 Tx and Rx RF channels. With the AD-FMCOMMS8-EBZ a customer can extend this system to 8 Tx and Rx RF channels.

It offers hail and lightning prediction, turbulence detection, and advanced ground clutter suppression.
Project could take advantage of the high energy density of traditional fossil fuels and the operational flexibility of an electric battery system.
Researchers have tested ten new technologies to detect ice accumulation on aircraft in flight, in wind tunnels and in real-time flight tests, reports the German Aerospace Center...
Bistatic Synthetic Aperture Radar is a radar configuration where the transmitter and receiver are located on separate platforms.
FEATURED WHITE PAPERS
Key Takeaways Avantier’s small objective lens revolutionizes medical optical systems, particularly in dental health applications. This project focuses on utilizing a higher-resolution lens while reducing the overall optical system volume. This carefully balanced approach involves advanced optical design, material selection, and component layout...
 Key Takeaways The article introduces large prisms, which are vital in scientific research, medical imaging, communication, and laser processing.  A project employing these prisms for entertainment and research uses red, green, and blue lasers to enhance optical communication efficiency.  In manufacturing large prisms, there are challenges...
Key Takeaways Avantier’s project introduces a custom-designed 25X objective lens for Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometer systems, specifically tailored for researching isotopes.

Connectors resist pull and shear force with available weld tabs within the standard part number configuration.
Ultra-precise motion sensing performance from a MEMS IMU that competes directly with much heavier, larger, less reliable, and more costly, fibre optic gyro-based units. DMU41 is our latest six-degree-freedom High Performance IMU (HPIMU). It is a ground-breaking, affordable, non-ITAR, MEMS alternative to ‘FOG-Grade’ IMUs. It takes proven...
Master Bond UV15RCL is a low viscosity, cationic type UV curing system with a special color changing feature. The originally red material changes to clear once exposed to UV light, indicating that there is UV light access across the adhesive material. Although this change in color from red to clear does not indicate a full cure it does confirm that...
At 16-inches deep, the servers mount in equipment-tray, sideways, or vertical orientations, or can be rack mounted in space-constrained naval uses.
