Renesas Electronics Corporation (TSE:6723), a premier supplier of advanced semiconductor solutions, today announced that its radiation-hardened (rad-hard) integrated circuits (ICs) were onboard the Hayabusa2 spacecraft that returned asteroid samples to Earth in an armored re-entry capsule on December 6, 2020. Operated by the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA), Hayabusa2 launched onboard the H-IIA rocket from the Tanegashima Space Center on December 3, 2014.

Arriving at the Ryugu asteroid on June 27, 2018, the Hayabusa2 asteroid samples retrieval mission was designed to explore the origins of the planets, the water of Earth’s oceans and source of life. Hayabusa2 carried multiple science payloads for remote sensing and sampling, and its four small rovers investigated the asteroid surface and analyzed the environment

Expanded RF portfolio covers complete signal chain for macro base stations
Renesas Electronics Corporation has strengthened its RF portfolio for traditional macro base transceiver stations with four new high-reliability, high-performance devices, providing customers access to a full RF signal chain solution. This expansion incorporates what is claimed to be the industry’s first quad-channel F4482/1 TX VGA and the F011x family of dual-channel first-stage LNA. The new device set also incorporates the F1471 RF driver amplifier – the first high-power pre-driver with P1dB of over 1/2W – and the F2934 RF switch with higher isolation in a smaller unit for digital pre-distortion feedback path.
