What We Do

An integrated Software Defined Radio (SDR) System-on-Chip that co-integrates a state-of-the-art RF transceiver (1.5-2.5GHz, up to 20MHz bandwidth) with extensive digital compute resources, including three Linux-capable RISC-V processors and a 192-core Manycore Array for parallelized waveform processing.

A digital processing chip hardware platform for board integration, combining Zynq SOC and Kintex FPGA for rapid, low-cost system prototyping and demonstrations, especially for digital phased array usage. Supports high data rates, computationally intensive algorithms, and flexible board configurations.

A digital predistortion (DPD) software package that achieves high linearity and peak efficiency in power amplifier systems. It supports a wide array of configurations, offers advanced FPGA architecture, and provides enhanced crest factor reduction and digital up/down conversion.

A compact, versatile DSP platform and waveform generator for optimizing power amplifier performance, supporting envelope tracking and real-time digital predistortion. Features include minimal setup, tunable RF frequency band from 300 MHz to 6 GHz, minimal unwanted spectral images, robust platform using Xilinx and Texas Instruments components, lightweight form factor, and a user-friendly GUI for per-sample signal alignment and feedback. Previous customers include Air Force Research Laboratory and Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory.

A family of gigabit-per-second modem devices with advanced software-defined modem hardware, enabling enhanced and secure communications for next-generation networks. Features include 1+ Gbps Ethernet connectivity, millimeter-wave wireless RF compatibility (50-90 GHz), multi-channel ADC design, FPGA-based forward error correction, and integrated operability with position, acquisition, and tracking systems. Used in high-profile collaborations with DARPA and battlefield comms for Shadow UAVs.

A high-voltage envelope modulator, the world’s only commercially available high power (>5W) envelope modulator, designed to maximize efficiency for 5-10W power amplifiers. Supports wide modulation bandwidths and high peak-to-average power ratios.
