Space Synthesizers
Narda-MITEQ develops high-performance, space-qualified RF and microwave frequency synthesizers engineered to deliver precise, stable, and low-noise signal generation for demanding spaceborne applications. Our SPLS Series phase-locked sources provide synthesized frequencies from 40 MHz to 15 GHz, offering excellent phase noise and spectral purity in a compact, lightweight package.
Designed for reliable operation in harsh space environments, these synthesizers feature radiation tolerance of 20-30 kRad total dose, single-event tolerance of 40-43 MeV, and low G-sensitivity. Supporting operation from either an external frequency reference or an internal temperature-compensated crystal oscillator (TCXO) with 1 PPM stability, our solutions address the specialized frequency generation and reliability requirements of advanced spaceflight systems.
Narda-MITEQ space-qualified frequency synthesizers are designed for integration into mission-critical applications supporting satellite communications (SATCOM), aerospace, military and defense, and advanced spaceborne electronic systems. Providing precise frequency references and controlled signal generation, our synthesizer technologies support satellite payloads, spacecraft communication systems, RF and microwave signal processing, and other applications requiring stable, accurate frequency sources.
