Space-Qualified Versions of SAM MCUs Roll
4 hours ago
Microchip Technology has announced the qualification of its SAMRH71 Arm-based microprocessor (MPU) and the availability of the SAMRH707 microcontroller (MCU), both implementing Arm Cortex-M7 SoC radiation-hardened technology. The company’s SAMRH71 and SAMRH707 devices were developed with the support of the European Space Agency (ESA) and Centre National D’Etudes Spatiales (CNES), the French space agency, to further research and program initiatives.
Relying on the standard Arm Cortex-M7 architecture and the same peripherals as automotive and industrial processors, the SAMRH71 and SAMRH707 provide system development cost and schedule optimization by leveraging standard software and hardware tools from the consumer devices.
BSU Updates High-Performance X-ray Inspection Capability
BSU Inc., a growing EMS company, has updated its high-performance X-ray inspection capability with the installation of a Nikon XT V Series world-class X-ray and CT inspection system. In addition to inspecting many areas of SMT/PCB assemblies that are generally inaccessible to visual inspection, the new X-ray system will be used to inspect Ball Grid Array (BGA), leadless, and connector components to identify problems such as solder joint defects, shorts, opens, etc.
In making the announcement, Dennis Leahy, VP of Sales and Customer Success, said, “We will continue to incorporate X-ray technology as a standard offering in our build process here at BSU. Our XT V 160 provides high-resolution to ensure compliance with our stringent quality standards. Each board is examined at varying levels/angles, and the images are saved to become part of the manufacturing r
Microchip Announces the Expansion of Its Radiation-Hardened Arm® Microcontroller (MCU) Family for Space Systems
Designers can benefit from another step in the Arm Cortex®-M7-based system-on-chip (SoC) commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) to rad-hard scalable solutions with the addition of embedded analog capabilities
CHANDLER, Ariz., April 27, 2021 Deep space initiatives including planetary exploration, orbiter missions and space research require innovative spacecraft system technology providing connectivity and processing. To enable system designers better integration and higher performance while reducing development costs and time to market, COTS technologies and scalable solutions are increasingly used in space applications. Microchip Technology Inc. (Nasdaq: MCHP) today announced the qualification of its SAMRH71 Arm-based microprocessor (MPU) and the availability of the SAMRH707 microcontroller (MCU), both implementing Arm Cortex-M7 SoC radiation-hardened technology.
Designing a secure PCB Hackers are a risk to the security of any device but while they can hack machines and steal essential details and data, it is possible to prevent hackers accessing your printed circuit board (PCB) design and itâs not as difficult as it seems if you implement security using a series of steps.
A useful means to avoid hackers is to design your PCB with full security. If assembly takes place after adding dedicated researched designs for protection, there really is no need to be afraid of hackers and if you add a number of techniques and components that can stop data loss, then that too will help.
