SAN FRANCISCO. Radiation-hardened (rad-hard) synchronous static random access memory (SSRAM) devices for flow-through and pipeline mode by Aeroflex Colorado Springs engineers at the Nuclear Space and Radiation Effects Conference (NSREC) held this week in San Francisco.

The synchronous-pipelined products are the UT8SP2M32, UT8SP2M40, and UT8SP2M48 at 67,108,864-bit, 83,886,080-bit, and 100,663,296- bit respectively. The synchronous-flow-thru SSRAM are the UT8SF2M32, UT8SF2M40, and UT8SF2M48 at 67,108,864-bit, 83,886,080-bit, and 100,663,296- bit.

The family of rad-hard. 64 to 96 megabit SSRAMs operate in a pipeline as well as flow through mode, which provides the user with more flexibility, says Tony Jordan, Director of Standard Products at Aeroflex Colorado Springs. “We’re looking at releasing prototypes in the third quarter of this year. These are very high-speed SRAMs with a very fast access time. We are seeing a performance increase that has access times going from 20 nanoseconds down to 7 nanoseconds and we’ve seen the building block density increase from 16 to 96 megabits – a six fold increase in density for this SRAM product that is built on 130 nm CMOS technology. For radiation environments we are targeting 300 krad Total Ionizing Dose (TID) for this product.”
