Passive Components represent more than 80% of the EEE parts used in spacecraft. Therefore, they represent a major concern for space applications. In recent years, the development of Passive Components has been driven by reliability, performances, new functionalities, mass and volume saving and cost reduction.
The SPCD international Symposium is the premier technical conference dedicated to Passive components for space applications. It is an exceptional venue to learn more about the latest advances in this field and meet recognized experts from industry, academia and agencies.
Aim of the SPCD symposium is to promote the discussion of recent developments and trends and to encourage the exchange of technical expertise and information covering a broad range of EEE passive components for space applications:
Capacitors |
Power dividers & Couplers |
Circulators & Isolators |
Relays & Switches |
Connectors & Cable assemblies |
Resistors |
Crystals & Resonators |
RF Switches & Phase shifters |
Fuses |
SAW Devices |
Heaters |
Supercapacitors |
Inductors & Transformers |
Thermal Sensors & Thermistors |
Loads & Attenuators |
Thermoelectric Coolers |
Oscillators |
Thermostats |
Piezo element |
Wires & Cables |
The symposium consists of both invited and submitted papers covering the following topics :
Application, Trends and Needs
