Renesas's history and experience in the space and defense industries spans decades, beginning with the founding of Radiation, Inc. in 1950. Renesas leverages this experience to deliver efficient, thermally optimized, and reliable SMD, MIL-STD-883 (/883), and Class-V/Q products for the high-reliability (Hi-Rel), and radiation hardened / space marketplaces.
As a major supplier to the aerospace industry, Renesas's product development methodologies reflect experience designing products to meet the highest standards for reliability and performance in challenging environments. Their products can be found in virtually every satellite launched into space.
Advantages of a High Precision ADC in Space Applications
In high-reliability electronics utilised in space applications, measurement precision and resilience are critical. From measuring system voltages and temperatures to precise motor control it is imperative to have a fully accurate measurement. Many electronic devices require closely controlled supply voltages that need to be monitored and adjusted. In addition, knowledge of the system temperature is important so that temperature compensation can be applied where necessary.
Renesas' Jonathan Harris takes a closer look at the advantages of a high precision ADC in space applications, specifically focusing on the ISL71148M.
