Advanced Materials defence companies in France

Designs and markets highly integrated mixed-signal semiconductors, including data converter chips and custom SoCs, for defence and aerospace, communications and test and measurement applications.

AFX010x Analog Front End

A family of reconfigurable analog-to-digital converter chips built on SCCORE technology. The AFX0101 is a quad continuous-time delta-sigma ADC sampling at up to 5 GSPS with software-configurable resolution from 8 to 16 bits and selectable digital bandwidth from 20 MHz to 300 MHz. Products ship with evaluation boards and user-friendly software for rapid system prototyping, targeting radar, digital oscilloscopes and high-resolution data acquisition systems.

SCCORE Signal Conversion Platform

Proprietary continuous-time delta-sigma ADC and DAC technology platform with on-chip calibration that enables wideband signal digitisation up to multiple GHz. SCCORE underpins all SCALINX products and is also available as licensable IP for customers building SoC transceivers, dual-band microwave and millimetre-wave chips, or agile RF receivers for phased-array radar.

Signal Conversion ASIC Service

Custom mixed-signal ASIC design and supply service for organisations that require signal conversion capabilities tailored to specific performance or integration requirements. SCALINX delivers designs as GDSII files, known-good die for multi-chip modules or fully integrated turnkey packaged devices. The service draws on a growing internal IP portfolio to reduce development risk and shorten time to market.

Designs manycore processor chips and PCIe acceleration cards for AI inference, 5G packet processing and storage acceleration in data centres and edge deployments.

TURBOCARD4

A PCIe acceleration card built on the MPPA Coolidge processor, targeting AI inferencing and smart vision applications. Delivers high performance per dollar for compute-intensive tasks and offloads AI workloads from general-purpose CPUs in data centre and edge deployments.

K300

A programmable PCIe acceleration card for telecommunications and security applications, handling radio network processing, packet processing and security acceleration as well as AI acceleration. Suitable for 5G base station deployments and network security appliances.

K200-LP

A storage acceleration card for high-performance storage environments. Combines storage acceleration and security offload in a low-profile PCIe form factor, designed for fast deployment and efficient operation in data centre storage tiers.
