Electronics that work on Earth are easy.
Electronics that survive space are not.
At APEC 2026, Steve Mappus from Infineon's HiRel division walks through a lineup of radiation hardened ICs and discrete devices designed for harsh space environments. On display is a rad hard synchronous buck controller shown on a live demo board, capable of driving either silicon MOSFETs or gallium nitride MOSFETs with a regulated 5 V output.
Next is Infineon's DLA certified rad hard 100 V GaN transistor, an award winning device now available. It's a major step forward for designers looking to combine GaN performance with the reliability required beyond Earth's atmosphere. Steve also highlights Infineon's rad hard discrete packaging technologies, giving customers a closer look at the robustness behind these devices.
Wrapping up the demo is a rad hard half bridge gate driver evaluation board, rounding out a complete ecosystem for space ready power designs.
Why it matters:
đ Rad hard ICs and discretes for space environments
⥠First internally manufactured rad hard 100 V GaN transistor with DLA qualification
đ§ Evaluation boards and packaging designed for real missions
If you're designing electronics for space and extreme environments, explore the galactic frontier with Infineon HiRel -- scom.ly/95Ao388
