Microchip Technology, announces the space-grade DSA504RT, a radiation-tolerant, six-output programmable clock generator Spacecraft Timing.
Microchip Technology has introduced a new six-output space-grade clock generator, designed to simplify spacecraft timing architectures while delivering the precision, reliability, and radiation tolerance required for mission-critical aerospace applications.
“This Microchip clock generation device is a game changer for space applications. It can offer a comprehensive clock tree solution, producing three different clock families and up to six different frequencies, each buffered on a variety of selectable output drive types,” said Maamoun Abou Seido, appointed vice president of Microchip Technology Inc. timing communications group. “Replacing numerous oscillators, buffers and synthesizers, the DSA504RT saves board space and reduces part count to improve the system Failures in Time (FIT) rate in these high reliability applications.”
