Description
ABSTRACT: The objective of the proposed effort is the development of a radiation hardened, programmable Sigma-Delta Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) ASIC. The ASIC will be designed to provide flexibility for variable bandwidth and variable resolution requirements of current satellite control systems. Nu-Trek"s concept provides a universal, radiation hardened Sigma-Delta ADC solution which is real-time programmable for specific satellite subsystem requirements. Radiation hardening, to the most extreme, is addressed by our partner"s top-notch, validated simulation suite which enables design/layout iteration until the level of hardness is achieved. BENEFIT: The proposed technology surpasses current state of the art for the level of hardness and ADC performance (ENOB/Speed/etc.).
