ALTER TECHNOLOGY signs collaboration agreement with Optoi

PRESS RELEASE

Optoi’s optocouplers are now available on doEEEt.com

ALTER TECHNOLOGY signs a collaboration agreement with Optoi and announce Optoi’s optocouplers are now available on doEEEt.com.  

Optoi is an Italian Company dealing with optoelectronics and microelectronics. In 2011, among the rapidly growing activities involving the Company’s aerospace unit, the Company started a new development centered on a radiation-tolerant optocoupler.  

This activity was funded by European Component Initiative (ECI) – ESA. It was focused on developing a European optocoupler with its European-Space-Component-Coordination (ESCC) evaluation for space applications, keeping the performances of the non-European counterparts as reference. The primary motivation for this activity was due to the absence of an ESCC qualified or evaluated European source for this type of component available for the space sector.  

In 2021, Optoi, being Europe’s leading optocoupler alternative thanks to ESA support, joined ALTER to promote its products and include them in doEEEt.com’s database, possibly requesting samples for evaluation of Optoi’s optocouplers. 

Webinar: Development of hermetic optocouplers and other optoelectronic devices for space applications

Within this collaboration, Optoi will also present a free webinar: Development of hermetic optocouplers and other optoelectronic devices for space applications on Monday, March 14th at 3 pm.  

In this online event, Matteo Bregoli, Optoi R&D Manager, will explain the complete development process of hermetic optocouplers in previous activities funded by ESA. The webinar presentation will be mainly centered on this type of component. Still, it will also provide an overview of other activities managed by Optoi in the development of optoelectronic devices for space applications.
