Some of the parts & subsystem development collaboration projects

Project: Developing the ADC16-bit for space application

Customer: ESA (European Space Agency)

Key elements

• -Alter Technology proprietary parts for future commercialization in space applications
• -New packaging concept for very high-pin count devices
• -Additional activities related to part assembly reliability testing

Project: Full evaluation of ATM ASIC 

Customer: University of Democritus / ESA (European Space Agency)

Key elements

• -Developing a new advanced systems test methodology based on collaborative approach
• -Online access to characterization results
• -Access to new customers & markets
• -Promoting OPTOCAP as packaging source (Pending)

Project: Developing a GANTRY Superconductor for Proton Therapy 

Customer: CDTI

Aim of the project

To develop a last generation plug and play Gantry superconductor that can be used in multiple accelerator systems.

Project: Contacless Angular sensor 

Customer: ESA

Aim of the project: To develop a high accuracy contactless angular sensor for telecom applications

• Alter Technology and Emxys collaboration:
  • Full design, manufacturing and evaluation of EM prototype for telecom applications
  • The target is to replace current potentiometers by a more reliable appliance
  • To provide a more attractive alternative to optical encoders
  • Several customers (SENER, IAA, KayserThrede…) largely interested in the device for future applications
  • ATN to commercialise the dedicated test bench as an independent product
