Electronics in aerospace applications such as satellites and aircraft are subjected to levels of radiation unknown in most conventional applications. In order for solid-state electronics to function unperturbed, their technologies must be adapted and they must be rigourously qualified in production testing.
ST's family of rad-hard 12 or 14-bit analog-to-digital converters provide excellent performances whilst sustaining up to 300krad (SI). In addition, our A/D converters offer very low power consumption, which is another vital factor in satellite applications where every mW counts.
