Mitsubishi Electric is introducing an internally matched GaN HEMT power amplifier for C-band satellite communication, which offers a power-added efficiency (PAE) of 67%. This is the world’s highest PAE rating as it is more than seven points higher than the rating of conventional C-band GaN amplifiers.

Altium Limited continues its investment in the future generation of electronics designers and engineers, with new donations of software to the University of Toronto Institute for Aerospace Studies, Space Flight Laboratory (UTIAS/SFL) in support of its CanX satellite missions.

The Budapest University of Technology and Economics (BME) has successfully sent the first Hungarian satellite, MASAT-1, into space on board the new ESA (European Space Agency) Vega launcher. The development tool Altium Designer has contributed significantly to the success of this project.

Leading global connector manufacturer and supplier, ITT Interconnect Solutions, will be showcasing two of its latest product families at Eurosatory International, the specialist defence exhibition to be held in Paris from 14 – 18 June at VIPARIS Nord, Villepinte Exhibition Centre.

ITT Electronic Components has developed a robust Micro-D connector with exceptional attenuation. Designated the TMDMP filter, the connector utilizes a unique internal filter design, providing the density needed to accommodate the ferrite tubes necessary for Pi filtering in military and aerospace applications.

New firmware (Version 4.12) has been introduced for the Yokogawa WT3000 digital power analyser that enables the instrument to be used to carry out real-time dynamic measurements on maximum power point tracking (MPPT): a system used to optimise the power performance of solar or wind energy inverter systems under changing conditions.
