The Analog and Mixed Signal Integrated Circuits for Space Applications (AMICSA) conference continues to stand out as a premier international platform for sharing the latest breakthroughs in analog, mixed-signal, and custom microcircuit design—especially for the demanding conditions found in space environments. This year's eagerly anticipated event took place in Lisbon,...
Thales Alenia Space in France, as a partner in the PROMISE consortium and a user of PROMISE IPs in the ongoing SCOPS design, participated in the COMET-MCE “Panorama des Librairies d'IP pour le design en microélectronique”. The presentation covered : PROMISE consortium, PROMISE offer, Pilot Circuit demonstrator and IPs ID...
The Analog and Mixed Signal Integrated Circuits for Space Applications (AMICSA) conferences are organized every two years by the ESA Microelectronics Section. Regrettably, this year's conference has been postponed, and the next opportunity for SCOPS to be presented its work to the audience will be at the following AMICSA conference,...
The consortium announces Fab-Out of the PROMISE Pilot Circuit
PROMISE consortium announces the achievement of CDR completion for the PROMISE Pilot Circuit on 31st of January 2023.
Imec announce the achievement of CDR completion for the embedded NVM IP. The IP is effectively designed from scratch using SONOS embedded Non-Volatile Memory. The NVM is a highly sophisticated IP containing numerous innovations at several levels of the design. Data integrity is a key goal of the design. This...
VTT announces the completion of the radiation hardened POR IP. This low power (<300μA) supervisory circuit monitors up to two power supply voltages, 1.8V/3.3V and takes appropriate actions if a voltage goes out of boundaries. When rising power supply voltage reaches a sufficient level, POR creates 100μs delay before reset...
ISD announces the completion of the ADC IP. This is 6 multiplexed input (differential or single-ended), low-noise, radiation hardened ADC adequate for sampling signals ranging from DC to 40kHz. The ADC converts the input voltage into a 24-bit word using an SPI - like serial interface. The system architecture is...
ISD announces the completion of the DAC IP. This is a single channel, low-noise, radiation hardened DAC adequate for converting digital signals ranging from DC to 50kHz. The DAC receives 24-bit input data in a synchronous serial format and converts it into a differential current analogue output signal. The converter...
IT announces the completion of the BGR IP. The radiation hardened BGR is designed for reliable performance in space application while considering process, voltage, and temperature variations and the impact of single-event transients and total ionizing dose. A worst-case temperature coefficient better than 6.13 ppm/°C, over an extreme temperature range...
