Fidus has just completed a 12-month contract to design a high-speed signal processing board for a Defence Research and Development Canada aircraft.
The contract is the latest in a series of design projects Fidus has delivered for DRDC, and involves the design of a circuit board to control for Canada's CP-140 Aurora aircraft.
"It's a complex and dynamic project. We needed a high-performance product in a compact, lightweight and resilient package, that withstands a harsh environment and high vibrations," said DRDC's head of radar electronic warfare, Jean-Francois Rivest. "Fidus accommodated all our design changes, completing the project on-budget and on-schedule."
Fidus's president Michael Wakim called the contract "an important win," and said the company was excited about the collaboration.
"(The project) has broadened our experience in the aerospace-defence market, and our designers really enjoy solving these difficult technological challenges," Mr. Wakim said.
Fidus noted that it is discussing follow-on projects with DRDC.
