The microcircuit of the "System in the case" type (SIC) is intended for use in civil navigation equipment. It receives and processes GNSS signals: GLONASS L1OF, L1OC; GPS C/A L1; GALILEO E1B, E1C; as well as SBAS L1, DCMS L1OC and solutions to the navigation problem.

The microcircuit provides:

• ability to select a source for downloading firmware;
• ability to verify software integrity.
• possibility of configuring interfaces depending on the location / control object and the task being solved.
• possibility of autonomous testing of individual blocks included in the microcircuit.
• ability to debug firmware.

The composition of the chip:

• radio frequency path (LNA, SAW filter, amplifier with AGC, ADC);
• digital navigation processor based on the RISC Cortex-M3 CPU with a wide range of interfaces;
• hardware and software “quick search machine”, 36 correlation channels, high-speed RAM, real-time clock, second time marker, etc.
• 8 Mb flash memory
