Components for space applications are subject to extreme temperatures, It is important to have enough data so that customers are confident to use parts in these cryogenic applications
New Space is a business that has come pushing hard on the past years. With the development of mega-constellations as Iridium or OneWeb and the entrance of new companies from industry on Space business related to telecommunications, a relaxation on the classical requirements for space parts has come to this market.
Two microcontrollers for space, the ATSAMV71Q21RT from Microchip Technology Nantes (formerly Atmel) and the UT32M0R500 from Cobham Microelectronic Solutions (formerly Aeroflex), are compared in this post
As a continuation of our previous post “Low Voltage Differential Signaling (LVDS) overview” it is shown a brief comparison between some LVDS drivers and receivers for high reliability and space application from different manufacturers
