Description

Thales Alenia Space has partnered with MinDCet (IC design house) in an ESA program for the development of a single chip dc-dc controller. The IC design was done on SOI and high voltage process.

Controller run2, was developed & tapped-out in development under an ESA GSTP program. Formal qualification for Space is reaching its end. The component Plastic BGA has now been successfully included in several dc-dc converter applications.

Early samples of the component will now become available for any European dc-dc designers.
MinDCet will perform component distribution and customer support.
