Business Wire
Cypress Semiconductor Corp. (Nasdaq:CY), the industry leader in
SRAMs, today introduced the industry’s first radiation-hardened
72-MBit QDR II+ SRAMs. The new SRAMs employ Cypress’s patented
RadStop™ technology, which enables uncompromised functionality in
the face of radiation doses of up to 300 kRads. The radiation
hardened QDRII+ SRAMs also deliver outstanding performance, with
clock speeds up to 250 MHz and throughput up to 36 gigabits per
second (Gbps). These memories enable Cypress to support additional
aerospace and defense applications such as weapons systems and
satellites.
The RadStop technology combines manufacturing process hardening
and proprietary design techniques. The new devices with RadStop
technology deliver single event latch-up and single event
functional interrupt immunity at temperatures as high as 125
degrees Centigrade.
Cypress offers four configurations of the 72 Megabit QDR II+
with RadStop technology. They are available in both x18 and x36 bus
widths, and with two- and four-word burst modes. All the devices
are offered in 165-pin Ceramic Column Grid Array (CCGA) packages.
The devices are manufactured in the Cypress FAB-4 facility, a
Microelectronics Trusted Category 1A Fabrication facility, located
in Bloomington, Minnesota, and are exclusively packaged and tested
in the United States.
“The 72 megabit QDRII+ with Radstop technology is a game
changing memory for radiation hardened applications. The size,
weight, and power consumption benefits enable designers to maximize
performance while significantly reducing board space,” said Walt
Anderson, Senior Director of Cypress’s Aerospace and Defense
Business Unit.
