Learn How to Be Part of the Space Technology Explosion in Microchip's NewSpace Webinar

Space was once the “final frontier” for nation-states, but the progression in technology has opened up space to all – with private ventures heading into orbit, to the moon and beyond. Space 2.0, or NewSpace, is being driven by an explosion in space-capable technologies suitable for use in the harsh environment outside the Earth’s atmosphere. Whether you’re curious about space technology, considering designing with NewSpace technologies, or currently working on a design, Microchip’s NewSpace webinar aims to help answer your questions and broaden your horizons.

Deciding to join the move off-planet is one thing, but there's a need to be backed-up by suitable technology — hardware that works just fine on Earth won't necessarily operate as-expected once it's in-orbit, well out of the reach of a hardware debugging cable or service engineer's coverage zone.

Whether you're just curious as to what technology is out there, you're considering designing or experimenting with Space 2.0 technologies from nano-satellites to rovers yourself, or if you're already working on a design, Microchip has a webinar that aims to help answer your questions and broaden your horizons — to beyond the horizon, in fact.

In this webinar from Microchip's Aerospace & Defense Group you'll learn about the current trends in the "NewSpace" industry, how components make the move from terrestrial commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) to space-qualified radiation-tolerant designs, and how these technologies can scale to not only drive the needs of the space industry today but well into the future too.

“As the largest supplier of commercial space components in the industry, Microchip has built a portfolio of the broadest range of components for all types of space system designs,” explains Microchip’s Nicolas Ganry, Senior Manager of Aerospace and Defense Marketing. “We provide microcontrollers, microprocessors, field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), memory, communication interfaces, oscillators, power devices and a number of other technologies.”

In this webinar from Microchip’s Aerospace and Defense group, you’ll learn about the current trends in the NewSpace industry, their efforts to move terrestrial commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) to space-qualified radiation-tolerant designs, and how these options provide scalability to meet a range of survivability and cost goals in this evolving industry. You’ll be given a tour of NewSpace with a focus on Earth observation technologies and their potential real-world impacts to aid humanity. Microchip’s commitment to customization and expanding the sub QML portfolio provide more options to serve the growing NewSpace economy.

The webinar is now available to watch on-demand on YouTube.
