Infineon looks to simplify on-system satellite image processing Infineon Technologies LLC has announced its next-generation 144-Mb Quad Data Rate II+ (QDR-II+) SRAM that is certified to the DLA Qualified Manufacturers List Class V (QML-V). This radiation-hardened (rad hard) 144-Mb QDR-II+ SRAM is a high-speed external cache memory intended for radar, on-board data processing and networking applications in space. Over the last decade, the aerospace industry has moved from on-ground to on-system data processing using new technologies with increased computational power and lower latency. Unlike DRAM with higher latency and memory bank restrictions, the 144-Mb QDR-II+ SRAM reduces the overall system complexity in radar and imaging applications by delivering a higher performance, enabling on-system satellite image processing with better resolution and faster processing speeds.
