Abstract
In the frame of a mission of the European Space Agency (ESA) a space qualified RF-generator needs to be developed to drive an AOTF (Acousto-Optical Tunable Filter) to make hyper-spectral images of the limb of the Earth. Custom off-the-shelf electronics can not fulfil the requirements for this scientific mission, hence alternative solutions for the RF-generation are investigated. This paper describes one of the possible solutions.
