AMICSA: Implementation of Radiation Hardening on analogue circuits at cell-, circuit-, and system design level
Oral
Mixed-signal design allows integration of further external discrete components and hence continues the dividend of integration. However, implementation of a mixed-signal flow into an operating digital or analog design flow is not a straight forward task. In space applications in addition, radiation is always an issue and ways need to be found to mitigate its effect on the circuit. Libraries...

AMICSA: Radiation-hardened technologies for analogue and mixed-signal ICs
Oral
DARE180U is a radiation hardened system-on-a-chip (SoC) design platform including mixed-signal and full-custom analogue circuits. It is built on the commercial UMC L180 MM/RF 1.8V/3.3V, Single Poly 6 Metal (1P6M), P-Sub/Twin-Well CMOS technology. In order to facilitate full custom radiation aware analogue design an analog design kit (ADK) is provided.
From the start this ADK targeted...

AMICSA: Space applications for analogue and mixed-signal ICs
Oral
A geostationary satellite typically employs as many as 1000 resistive temperature sensors for its housekeeping activities. These sensors are point-to-point wired to an acquisition unit, which is often a single central interrogator system. This poses a need to develop solutions that can reduce harness complexity and weight while maintaining high reliability and keeping low cost and power...
