The Centre for Development of Telematics (C-DOT) has signed an agreement with Silizium Circuits Private Limited and SoC startup under Fabless Chip Design Incubator (FABCI) IIT Hyderabad, for the “Design and Development of low Earth orbit (LEO) Satellite Components and GNSS RF Front End ASIC”.
The agreement is signed under the Telecom Technology Development Fund (TTDF) scheme of the Department of Telecommunications (DoT), Government of India. Silizium Circuits, with support from the scheme is set to develop advanced semiconductor solutions for LEO satellite components. This initiative aims to drive innovation in India’s satellite communication ecosystem by addressing key challenges such as power efficiency, high-speed data transmission, and robust signal integrity.
Leveraging its expertise in analog, radio frequency (RF), and mixed-signal technologies, Silizium Circuits will contribute to the creation of high-performance, reliable communication systems. The goal is to support a wide range of LEO satellite infrastructure projects, catering to both the global market and India’s vision for a self-reliant, future-ready satellite communication network that enhances connectivity both in urban and rural circles, and advances next-generation broadband services.
