Euclid : La mission de l'ESA embarque nos composants magnétiques et condensateurs.

Nos composants magnétiques et nos condensateurs sont à bord de la dernière mission de l'ESA : Euclid.

Cette réalisation remarquable vient s'ajouter à notre participation réussie à la mission JUICE de l'ESA et à la présence de nos composants à bord du rover Perseverance de la NASA.

Euclid est une mission spatiale ambitieuse de l'Agence Spatiale Européenne (ESA) qui vise à cartographier l'Univers observable et à enquêter sur la mystérieuse énergie sombre et la matière noire. Le satellite étudiera des galaxies qui se trouvent à différentes distances de la Terre au moyen d’un télescope de 1,2m de diamètre qui embarque deux instruments : l’imageur observant en lumière visible (VIS) et le spectro-imageur proche infrarouge (NISP).

Nous sommes fiers d'avoir été sélectionné comme fournisseur de composants passifs de haute fiabilité pour cette mission cruciale. Nos composants magnétiques (CMC 15, SESI inductance 9.1, 15 & 22) et nos condensateurs (PM 948S, PM 94S, DBIT X3S) ont été soigneusement conçus et fabriqués pour répondre aux exigences extrêmes de l'espace (ESA QPL) et jouer un rôle clé dans le succès de la mission Euclid (Nous équipons le PCDU = Unité de distribution de conditionnement de puissance). 

Euclid - Exxelia

Notre expertise et notre expérience dans la conception et la fabrication de composants électroniques passifs sur mesure pour le domaine spatial, nous permettent de répondre aux exigences les plus strictes de l'industrie aérospatiale. Nous sommes déterminés à maintenir notre position en tant que fournisseur de confiance pour les missions spatiales de renom.

Ultra low ESR, high RF power and high self-resonant frequency The NHB series is a complete range of MLCC based on NPO dielectric material providing a very high Self Resonant Frequency and limiting the parasite Parallel Resonant Frequencies. The series is available in 1111 size with capacitance ranging from 0. 3pF to 100pF. NHB series offers excellent performance for RF power applications at high temperature up to 175°C @ 500 VDC. The lowest ESR is obtained by combining highly conductive metal electrodes and proprietary of the NPO low loss rugged dielectrics. NHB series is particularly fit for high power and high frequency applications such as: cellular base station equipment, broadband wireless service, point to point / multipoint radios and broadcasting equipment. Typical circuit applications: impedance matching, bypass, feedback, tuning, coupling and DC blocking.   100% invar tuning screws with self-locking system   Invar-36 is a unique Iron-Nickel alloy (64 % Fe / 36 % Ni) sought-after for its very low coefficient of thermal expansion. With 1.1 ppm. K–1 between 0°C and 100°C, Invar-36 is about 17 times more stable than Brass which is the most traditional and common alloy Tuning Elements are made of. The working temperature range in Space is so wide that this property becomes essential for a reliable and stable cavity filter tuning. Self-locking system is a technology commonly used on Tuning Element made of Brass or other soft “easy-to-machine” alloys but is innovative and pretty advanced when applied to hard and tough Invar 36. The design consists of two threaded segments separated by two parallel slots. After cutting both parallel slots, the rotor is compressed in its length in order to create a plastic deformation. Thus, an offset is induced between the two threaded segments which generates a constant tensile stress in the rotor from the moment threaded segments are screwed. High Q Factor Dielectric Resonators Dielectric resonators are designed to replace resonant cavities in microwave functions such as filters and oscillators. Exxelia has developed with support of ESA and CNES, a new high-end dielectric material, E7000 series, designed for high-end filters where high Q factor is requested. E7000 is Ba-Mg-Ta materials based that combines an ultra-high Q factor and the possibility to get all the temperature coefficients upon request. E7000 provides high-performance requested for space use in the frequency range 5 to 32 GHz, and guarantees up to Qxf > 250 000 at 10GHZ. Typical applications: Satellite multiplexing filter devices, radio links for communication systems (LMDS), military radars.
