| | Start-up exploits YIG technology for mil, aerospace apps |
 | | Santa Rosa, Calif. -- A new microwave component and sub-system company, VIDA Products, Inc., has been formed to concentrate on military and commercial applications for high-Q, broadly tunable filters, oscillators, and frequency synthesizers. |
 | | The company's products will use YIG technology with new developments recently introduced by VIDA such as extended temperature range performance, insensitivity to vibration, very low drive power requirements, and the use of thin film YIG (TFY) resonators. |
 | | Key applications include satellite and terrestrial communication systems and ELINT and ECM equipment where broad tunability, high data rate, and/or operationally secure performance are critical requirements. |
