Innovative Approaches for Radiation-Hardened Electronics

Abstract

The Navy desires advanced trusted and reliable hardware to support strategic missions. Electronic components used in strategic missions have unique requirements such as the ability to operate and survive in harsh radiation environments. Current radiation-hardened electronics available to the Government often lag many generations behind that of commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) components. This leads to a significant gap in performance between the capability of strategic hardware and commercial hardware. To help bridge this gap, the Navy is interested innovative approaches that have the potential to bridge this capability gap. Research areas can include (but are not limited to) fault tolerant system design, radiation-hardened by design techniques, and projections of radiation hardness with technology node scaling.
