High-Reliability Electronic Components for Avionics
Our range of rugged electronic components include analogue and mixed signal integrated circuits (ICs), suitable for applications such as flight control, navigation and engine management.
In addition, APC advise on high-end printed circuit boards (PCB’s), including rigid-flex PCBs which are ideal for saving space and reducing the number of connectors in electronic equipment, which can also help to increase the reliability of a system. For power solutions, we support manufacturers with solutions for rectification, motion control, transient protection and power distribution.
RF and Microwave Technologies and Sub-Systems for Civil Aerospace
APC’s RF and Microwave solutions feature a comprehensive range of high-performance broadband microwave products and connectorised solutions for the entire RF block.
Our team offer a diverse selection of RF rotary joints designed for commercial applications and has a deep knowledge of satellite communication (SATCOM) systems with high-performance RF/microwave amplifiers and integrated microwave assemblies (IMAs) designed to the highest level of electrical performance.
Supported by Low Noise Amplifiers (LNAs) and High Power Amplifiers (HPAs), we can help you overcome your SATCOM engineering challenges.
Specialist Computing Systems for Avionics
Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) positioning and timing services form the backbone of many civil aerospace applications.
APC’s Systems team have solutions for ensuring accuracy and reliability of GPS/GNSS signals – and protecting from intentional and unintentional interference.
Our systems portfolio also includes PTP timing solutions for professional time and frequency synchronisation across networks and a range of rugged embedded computing products designed with extended temperature ranges, able to withstand vibration and shock and easy expansion capabilities.
Aviation Test Solutions
To compliment the technologies we supply, APC’s Test Solutions team offer a wide portfolio of avionic testing solutions. Whether its monitoring interference in the RF spectrum, or making repeatable, automated measurements on in-flight electronic systems, our range of test equipment can help with initial modelling and prototyping through to design and deployment.
Our team can help flight operators avoid costly Aircraft on Ground (AOG) downtime, with handheld spectrum analysers featuring software based on aircraft OEM specifications to easily identify and resolve RF cable, connector, and antenna issues.
