Electronics Semiconductors ASIC platform semiconductorORCA SYSTEMS ORC5000 ASIC platform is designed for use in low-Earth orbit (LEO) IoT satellite payload and terrestrial IoT gateway designs. Product is based on the GF 22FDX platform has significant advantages for use in LEO satellite payloads due to its low power consumption and low susceptibility to latch-up and single event effects (SEE). Platform also uses GF’s eMRAM technology in the application CPU subsystem, which enables low power and reduced soft-error rate and improves reliability for satellite communications. The ASIC platform is designed for highly complex, multi-channel modem and signal processor integration. It supports an internal PHY for access to large external LPDDR4x memory for samples or other large data set storage tasks.
