Since more than a decade, Thales Alenia Space in Belgium is investing in a growing portfolio of RadHard ASICs with the Digital Programmable Controller as a flagship paving the way to other ASICs.
The brand new High Speed Controller, the” Swiss Knife for DCDC converters”, contains an innovative regulation , the Peak & Valley Current Control (PVCC)
In the frame of a growing Rad Hard ASIC...
This paper presents the test vehicle (TV) of the rad-hard library developed at IMEC, referenced with the acronym DARE22G, that reflects the “Design Against Radiation Effects in 22nm”. Thanks to this test vehicle, the functional validation, the electrical performance, and the radiation hardening and sensitivity (SEE and TID effects) of the DARE22G library and a commercial DPRAM will be...
A radiation hardened high speed serializer-deserializer (SerDes) IP for aerospace applications is presented. It is developed in TSMC 65nm technology, using the DARE65 rad-hard digital library. The maximum speed will be 6.25 Gbps and the power dissipation will be lower than 300mW per channel.
Integration of high-speed SERDES macros in a complex ASIC requires full-custom, application specific...
