Why PIC-based interrogators?
The advantages of Photonic Integrated Circuits compared to electronic chips
PIC-based FBG interrogators offer a powerful combination of miniaturization, robustness, performance, and cost-effectiveness, making them an ideal choice for a wide range of sensing applications. Compared to conventional electronic chips Photonic Integrated Circuits offer valuable advantages:
• Cost Reduction with Each New Chip Generation – As PIC technology matures, economies of scale drive down costs per chip, making each new generation more affordable. This contrasts with traditional bulk-optic designs that remain relatively expensive to manufacture. • Smaller System Footprint – PIC integration significantly reduces the size of the interrogator compared to free-space optics or fiber-based architectures. This enables compact (lucifer box), lightweight (
Peraglobe Technologies, in partnership with PhotonFirst, brings advanced Fight-qualified, PIC-based FBG interrogation systems to India. Our mission is to make world-class photonic sensing solutions accessible to aerospace, defense, research institutions, and innovators across India.
This combination of cost-effectiveness, miniaturization, and robustness makes PIC-based FBG interrogators highly attractive for demanding sensing applications.
