Overview of ESA teams and programmes involved in the development of ASIC and FPGA for space applications, the special requirements that space ICs have to meet, main technologies in use and two important developments:
Deep sub-micron space ASIC offer with radiation hardened libraries based on STMicroelectronics CMOS 65nm, and DARE radiation hardened libraries based on UMC CMOS 180nm, including mixed-signal capability.
