EnSilica to Highlight Complete Ku- and Ka-band User Terminal Chipset at MWC Barcelona 2026

Oxfordshire, United Kingdom – February 5, 2026 – EnSilica plc, a leading fabless ASIC design and supply company specialising in mixed-signal ASICs, will exhibit at MWC Barcelona 2026 from March 2 – 5 in Hall 7, Stand 7B17.

At the event, EnSilica will showcase a complete Ku- and Ka-band chipset for highly integrated, cost-optimised satellite broadband user terminals. Developed using a resilient, predominantly European supply chain, the chipset combines RF, beamforming and digital processing capabilities to reduce power consumption, component count and overall system cost, enabling compact flat-panel antenna terminals across multiple satellite constellations and frequency bands.

Paul Morris, VP RF and Communications Business Unit at EnSilica, commented, “This complete Ku- and Ka-band user terminal chipset builds on our established portfolio of user terminal technologies to deliver highly integrated, power-efficient solutions for next-generation flat-panel terminals. By leveraging a robust European supply chain, we help customers de-risk deployment while achieving best-in-class cost and performance. Samples are available now of many chips.”

Visitors to the stand will also be able to discuss EnSilica’s forward roadmap and explore options for custom ASIC solutions for both satellite payloads and user terminals, targeting further reductions in power, cost and system complexity.

Network operators, satellite service providers and equipment manufacturers looking to optimise integration, power efficiency and total cost of ownership in next-generation platforms are invited to visit EnSilica in Hall 7, Stand 7B17 to discuss their ASIC requirements.

Quickly and accurately identify inter-domain leakage issues in IC designs

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Power domain leakage is a major IC reliability issue, often missed by traditional tools. This white paper describes challenges of identifying leakage, types of false results, and presents Siemens EDA’s Insight Analyzer. The tool proactively finds true leakage paths, filters out false positives, and helps circuit designers quickly fix risks—enabling more robust, reliable chip designs. With detailed, context-aware analysis, designers save time and improve silicon quality.
