ANKA Mikroelektronik Sistemler A.Ş.

Implementation of the LEON3 Processor on FPGA

  • The company was established at ITU GSTL in 2013 through a project supported under the TÜBİTAK 1512 Rapid Support Program.
  • It has since become an organization conducting joint projects with ASELSAN, TÜBİTAK, ROKETSAN, and numerous international companies.
  • A system-on-chip (SoC) was implemented on FPGA using the 32-bit open-source LEON3 processor.
  • Open-source software-defined radio applications were executed on the system.

Development of a RISC-V-Based Microprocessor

  • Within the national microprocessor development project, open-source RISC-V designs are planned to be used as a foundation and extended with application-specific enhancements.
  • The project aims to develop, for the first time in Türkiye, a 32-bit system-on-chip containing a processor, general-purpose peripherals, and cryptographic IP cores, with both FPGA and ASIC implementations.
  • FPGA design and testing have been completed, and the ASIC development process has begun.
  • Significant progress has been made regarding the use of TÜBİTAK TÜTEL licenses.

STM: Development of the MICROSATPRO National Micro-Satellite Computer

TÜBİTAK TEYDEB 1501

  • The project aimed to develop, by the end of 2019, a low-power satellite computer for a national micro-satellite, offering high tolerance to space conditions and support for both military and civilian communication standards.
  • The system was designed to be implemented on FPGA without creating dependency on any particular vendor.
  • Linux support and a modular hardware architecture were intended to enable customer-specific system configurations.

NETA Elektronik A.Ş.

Development of a Common Interface Module for Decoding Encrypted Satellite Video Broadcasts

  • A domestic common interface module (CAM) was developed through a collaboration between NETA A.Ş. and ITU GSTL under a TÜBİTAK TEYDEB 1501 project.
  • The FPGA-based system contains components such as a RAM controller, CI controller, and smart-card controller surrounding a MicroBlaze soft-core processor.
  • All these components were designed jointly by ITU GSTL and NETA A.Ş. in compliance with satellite video broadcasting standards.
  • A continuously updatable, secure, and cost-effective product was designed with support for hardware, software, and real-time operating system updates delivered through satellite broadcasts.

PROFEN İletişim Teknolojileri ve Hiz. San. Tic. A.Ş.

Development of a Multi-User, Remotely Accessible Real-Time Spectrum Analyzer for Satellite Communications

  • The system is designed to operate within the 70 MHz–6 GHz frequency range.
  • Parallel FFT-based signal processing will be used to transform ADC signals from the time domain into the frequency domain.
  • Windowing techniques will be applied to enable effective signal tracking.
  • The project covers FPGA design, signal processing, embedded software, and PC-based software development.

VESTEL

Protection of Intellectual Property Rights Using Physically Unclonable Functions and Helper Data

  • FPGA designs were protected against counterfeiting and cloning attempts using physically unclonable functions, AES encryption, and partial reconfiguration.
  • A board-specific decryption key was generated using a physically unclonable function circuit.
  • Because this circuit produces a different result on each board, a copied design cannot be decrypted when transferred to another board.
