S-LITE (EWC31)

S/S Band Transponder

Syrlinks (with CNES support) has developed a high performance CCSDS S-band transceiver named S-LITE (EWC31) for NanoSat and CubeSat platforms.
Some “electronic fuses” are implemented on board in order to switch-off some power lines in case of latch-up – or over current consumption – due to space radiations.
For the transmit section, the equipment operates in the 2200–2290 MHz range. The RF output power can be adjusted from +27 to +33 dBm with data rate from 10 kbps to 2 Mbps.
For the receiver section, the equipment operates in the 2025–2110MHz frequency range at a data rate which can be selected in the range from 8 to 256 kbps.

*The SME label awarded by CNES underlines the excellence of a key SME space supplier in developing porducts or providing space services.
