Technical advantages
Reduced Mass and
Volume
•Reducing discrete components in a circuit implies less PCB surface
requirements.
•PCB density = Concrete Density !!
•Less PCB implies fewer boards in a complex box and therefore reduce
equipment volume (more attractive to the satellite integrator).
Reduced Power
Consumption
• ASIC internal power supply voltage for an acquisition chain can be as
low as 1,2V. Less power supply implies less power consumption.
Improved Performance
•Preferred Part List for Flight equipment manufacturers is a short group of very
old active components.
•Very little updates from Commercial active components manufacturers.
Radiation Hard Improved
Performance
•With the reduction of size in Commercial foundries (nm, and below), the
components are more and more sensitive to radiation (SEE). Difficult to qualify
cots for radiation environments.
•ASIC implementation allows Radiation Hard implementations by Design
Noise reduction
•Proximity of different elements of the Acquisition chain (Amplifier, ADC,
Reference….) inside the ASIC guaranties less noise in the chain and higher
resolution and accuracy.
WCA and FMECA simplification.
Increased MTBF
• Less components implies better reliability analysis.
ITAR Free
• High technology with zero procurement problems.
Economic Advantages
Less discrete components
implies a reduction in
cost in medium term.
• For the price of one mixed signal ASIC development project
the customer can receive more than 1,000 or 10,000
qualified chips than can be mounted in different projects.
A project choosing Mixed
Signal ASIC development
reduces project internal
designers cost and
associated structural costs
• Only one technical manager interfaces with ARQUIMEA
designers once every week through SKYPE or teleconf.
At the end of a project
the Company internal
reserve Goods
increases.
• Each ASIC is part of a semi-finished product, and can be
accounted in the company balance sheet.
Programmatic Advantages
Based on designer knowhow the standard
development time for an
ASIC can be shortened.
• Development of EM in short time.
• Qualification of FM parts in parallel to
Customer validation in final electronic circuit
• Similar to a Long Lead item
Cofigurable topologies
allow for rapid last minute
changes
• Based on ARQUIMEA know how a flexible
design can be supplied.
• Electronically configurable ADCs.
In next projects, you will be
the fastest .
• In next project, the customer holds a
proprietary Part that can be used for next
generation Designs.
Strategic Advantages
Space sector is becoming
competitive
ITAR Free. USA non
dependence.
Increase your technology
portfolio.
• Hold your own technology.
• Hold an strategic technology to win next
quotations.
• Reduce the risk of problems during
procurement.
• Companies require strategic technologies to
grow.
ITAR
For US components ITAR free today does not mean ITAR Free tomorrow.
In 2006, During the political crisis between US and
Europe due to 2nd Iraqui War, shipments of 54SX
FPGAs where delayed by US DOD during 2 months.
No European satellite could be finished on time.
Wolfgang Veith, ESA's head of product assurance and
safety, says: ‘ITAR Components increases the risk,
both programmatic and technological. It's
programmatic risk in the sense that it inevitably leads
to extended procurement times. And the lifecycle of
each component must be tracked to a large level of
detail, from design to integration to testing to launch.'
Non Dependence technology: An alternative can be implementing the system on a
Radiation Hard ASIC using non-ITAR technologies by ARQUIMEA.
MIXED SIGNAL ASIC TYPICAL
APPLICATIONS
Mixed Signal ASIC typical applications
Antenna Manufacturer
Active antennas used in satellites, are an array of different transmitter/receivers which
have to be controlled independently. To reduce mass, size and power consumption an
ASIC can be developed to control each of the this sections.
Mixed Signal ASIC typical applications
Remote Terminal Units
Earth-observation
satellites
or
space
telescopes uses large format focal planes,
based on an array of CCDs. Each of these
CCDs need specific circuitry which can be
efficiently implemented to be placed on the
back of each CCD, leading to a light, small
and power saving design.
Telecom Satellites require highly complex
remote terminal Units and Payloads
Mixed Signal ASIC typical applications
Instrument Control
Units
Earth Observation satellites, landers,
planet probes and others, commonly
need systems which need to process
and acquire data from different sensors.
As the number of sensor can be high,
having each of them different electrical
characteristics, integrated acquisition
systems can be implemented on an
ASIC, allowing centralized acquisition,
simplifying data architectures, and
adding features as online data
processing among others.

CONCLUSIONS
•

•
Mixed signal ASICs are postulated as an alternative solution to current
procurement ISSUES: space devices availability, ITAR/ European
dependence, OBSOLESCENCE, Power reduction Mass reduction,
Performance increase and Current Monopoly cases.
Typical ASICs development programme risks can be mitigated by
innovative ASICS design strategies (ASIC re-configurability, reusability, portability and radiation hardening tailoring).
Foundries pre-selection, testing optimisation, assembly standardisation
will also reduce risks for coming ASICs development programmes.
Several applications are susceptible of being implements in a ASIC
with potential technical, economic and programmatic advantages.
State of the Art of ASICS and design technologies allows the
development of ITAR free rad hard mixed-signal components in
Europe.
