Problem
Electronic components used in nuclear and space applications face extreme radiation levels, leading to performance degradation and potential system failure. Existing commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) components lack the necessary radiation hardening, resulting in unreliable operation and limited mission lifespans. This necessitates specialized, high-reliability solutions for critical applications in these harsh environments.
Solution
Magics Technologies provides radiation-hardened integrated circuits (ICs) and modules designed to withstand the extreme conditions of nuclear and space environments. Their products offer enhanced reliability and performance in applications such as satellite communication, earth observation, nuclear power plant diagnostics, and robotic manipulators. By employing specialized design flows and advanced automation, Magics Technologies delivers radiation tolerance alongside exceptional electrical performance, ensuring dependable operation in demanding environments. The company's rad-hard components can withstand total ionizing doses (TID) up to 100 Mrad / 1 MGy (Si) and are immune to Single Event Effects (SEE) up to LET > 62.5 MeV · cm²/mg.
Target Audience
The primary customers are organizations in the space and nuclear industries requiring high-reliability electronic components for applications such as satellite systems, nuclear power plants, and research facilities.
