Many readers will already be aware that Microchip Technology Inc. acquired Microsemi Corporation in May 2018. Microchip has served the space community for over 30 years, and offers a range of radiation-hardened and radiation-tolerant processors, memory products, custom ASICs and standard products including SpaceWire routers and GNSS processors, with qualification to QML class Q, QML class V, and ESCC standards. You can learn more about Microchip space products here. Microchip’s space products team brings a wealth of expertise and a set of products that are complementary to Microsemi’s FPGAs, mixed-signal integrated circuits, clocks, oscillators, discrete semiconductors, and power converters.

The Microsemi and Microchip product teams are already working together to identify areas where we can collaborate. In future editions of Space Brief, we hope to bring you news of new interoperation demos, reference designs, and joint developments, making use of the synergies between the two teams.

Please forward Space Brief to your colleagues, and ask them to register to receive future editions by clicking here.
