• 01/2008 XERXES gets contract with the Institute of space research in Graz/ Austria the DLR and the ESA to design and produce a dielectric vector probe for the next mission to Mars

 

• 05/2008 XERXES delivers RF and signal processing components for the enviromental surveillance radar of H&S Hochfrequenztechnik. The new spread spectrum based (patent pending) design allows 5 m range gate resolution and up to 300 km/h velocity measurement at 0.1 km/h resolution. The maximum range of 1 km was reached by using only 100 mW transmitting power at 17.25 GHz.

 

• 07/2008 XERXES introduces the XC8516A signal processing board. The system is capable to process even complex modulation/demodulation schemas like OFDM, the true DC differential, low offset input and output coupling allows many application.

 

• 09/2008 XERXES introduces the XC3432A digital receiver and signs a contract with AviBit GmbH to develop a SSR based aviation multilaterational system.

 

• 12/2008 XERXES finishes the installation of the prototype CNC milling machine shop.

 

• 02/2009 XERXES delivers first ADSB, MODE-S and MODE A/C digital receivers

 

• 04/2009 XERXES acquires a 3600 pph SMT assembly system
