STMicroelectronics, a global semiconductor provider serving customers across the spectrum of electronics applications, is simplifying the design and volume production of the new generation of reliable small, low-cost satellites to deliver services like earth observation and broadband internet from low-earth orbits (LEOs). ST’s new series of radiation-hardened power, analog, and logic ICs in low-cost plastic packages…
Microchip advances family of non-hybrid, space-grade power converters
Space system designers cannot easily support non-standard voltages or add functions with traditional hybrid-style power converters. Microchip Technology has eliminated the cost, complexity, and customization challenges of these hybrid solutions by offering a discrete-component-based, space-grade DC-DC power converter family that now includes 28V-input, 50-watt (W) radiation-tolerant options. “Our latest 28V-input SA50-28 products greatly simplify and accelerate…
