Radiation-Hardened eFPGA

Overview

The Rad Hard eFPGA IP cores leverage the proven Australis eFPGA generation flow to deliver customizable, radiation-tolerant solutions tailored for space and mission-critical applications. Whether embedded as an IP core in ASICs and SoCs or implemented as a custom rad-hard FPGA, this technology ensures robust performance in the most demanding environments.

Key Features

  • Radiation-Hardened by Design (RHBD): Built to operate in space and defense applications, ensuring reliability under extreme conditions.
  • Customizable eFPGA IP: Tailored to specific mission requirements with adaptability to various process nodes and foundries.
  • High Reliability: Designed to withstand Total Ionizing Dose (TID) and Single Event Effects (SEE).
  • Flexible Architecture: Configurable DSP, LUT, and BRAM blocks to meet a wide range of application needs.
  • Low Power Consumption: Optimized for energy efficiency, including choosing the right transistor options that balance power consumption and performance.
  • Seamless ASIC/SoC Integration: Compatible with a broad array of designs, simplifying the integration process.

Benefits

  • Re-programmability: The re-programmability of the technology enables post-deployment design flexibility, which allows single SoC or ASIC designs to serve multiple applications, easily adapt to changing standards, and be re-configured to meet mission-specific requirements, even after deployment.
  • Customizable hardware acceleration: Supports customized implementations of block RAM and DSP blocks for CPU offloading and hardware acceleration for artificial intelligence / machine learning applications.
  • Cost effective: For long life cycle applications, eFPGA technology extends device lifetime by enabling customers' SoCs and ASICs able to accommodate device-level changes without incurring the high costs of creating and qualifying a new device.
  • Secure: Implement custom security protocols for programming and accessing the eFPGA.
  • Built for space and beyond: Unlike other technologies that have been repurposed and then requalified for space applications, QuickLogic's eFPGA IP has been designed to support the most stringent requirements associated with Radiation Hardened applications.
