Optical transceivers employ fiber optic technology to convert electrical signals into light signals. Doing so can transmit the information in the optical fiber, traveling at very high speeds and long distances. A transceiver includes two parts: a transmitter, and a receiver...
Flip chip assembly techniques bring a wide range of benefits: A reduced parasitic interconnection between the semiconductor die and package. Provides a high final assembly integrity density. Minimize the interconnection length, providing better electrical performances...
For decades, military/space electrical, electronic, and electromechanical (EEE) parts have proved to be suitable for use in military and space applications. [NASA's Office of Safety & Mission Assurance (OSMA) evaluates newly available and advanced electronic parts for programs...

A dedicated evaluation and qualification campaign has been performed on several optical COTS components in order to use them on ESA’s SMOS mission. The evaluation phase consisted of a set of critical tests and analyses and led to the selection of the flight lot component. After...
The Single event effects is becoming more and more important due to the devices technology evolution, the increase demand of COTS use (and other non characterized devices against radiation), and the radiation requirements request by new missions and applications. In this paper...
