REPORT DESCRIPTION<br />

<strong>Radiation</strong> hardening is a process in which the electronic components <strong>and</strong> semiconductors are made resistant to<br />

malfunctions caused due to electromagnetic radiation <strong>and</strong> particle radiation. These radiations are classified under<br />

ionizing radiation <strong>and</strong> they generally occur at high altitude, outer space, nuclear reactors <strong>and</strong> during nuclear warfare<br />

<strong>and</strong> nuclear accidents. Majority of the semiconductors <strong>and</strong> electronic components are vulnerable to such radiation<br />

effects; thus, to reduce the susceptibility, the manufacturing <strong>and</strong> designing of these semiconductors <strong>and</strong> electronic<br />

components is varied from their non-hardened counterparts. However, owing to the extensive cost involved in<br />

testing <strong>and</strong> developing radiation-tolerant designs of microelectronic chip, the radiation-hardened electronic <strong>and</strong><br />

semiconductors have a propensity to lag behind in terms of recent developments. <strong>Radiation</strong>-hardened electronics<br />

<strong>and</strong> semiconductors are tested using several resultant effect tests such as total ionizing dose, neutron <strong>and</strong> proton<br />

displacement damage, single event effects <strong>and</strong> enhanced low dose rate effects.<br />

The environments at high altitude comprises high level of ionizing radiation, as a result, there are several challenges<br />

for the designers <strong>and</strong> manufactures of the electronics <strong>and</strong> semiconductor devices that can sustain the radiation<br />

effects. The major problem caused due to such radiations is signal spikes <strong>and</strong> electronic noise. These noise <strong>and</strong><br />

spikes can be generated by a single charge particle that is capable of knocking thous<strong>and</strong>s of loose electrons. This<br />

can in turn result in inaccuracies in implementation/execution of integrated digital circuits used in spacecrafts,<br />

satellites, military aircraft <strong>and</strong> nuclear weapons, <strong>and</strong> power stations. Owing to the dem<strong>and</strong> for integrated digital<br />

circuits for such critical applications, it is important for the manufacturers to implement radiation hardening<br />

techniques to ensure that the components produced are resistant to radiations.<br />

The radiation hardening techniques are classified under two categories namely, physical hardening <strong>and</strong> logical<br />

hardening. The physical hardening techniques include manufacturing the electronic components using insulating<br />

substrates such as silicon on insulator <strong>and</strong> silicon on sapphire. Additionally, bipolar integrated circuits, magneto<br />

resistive r<strong>and</strong>om access memory, shielding packages <strong>and</strong> capacitor based dynamic r<strong>and</strong>om access memory are the<br />

major electronic components that are radiation hardened. The logical hardening techniques includes parity checking,<br />

using redundant elements, using hardened latches <strong>and</strong> using watchdog timer to reduce the impact of radiation on<br />

the electronic circuits.


The radiation hardened electronics <strong>and</strong> semiconductors is primarily driven by the increasing dem<strong>and</strong> for<br />

communication satellites which results is high dem<strong>and</strong> for radiation hardened components. Moreover, several<br />

countries investing on the space projects to launch various satellites in outer space is further propelling the dem<strong>and</strong><br />

for radiation hardened electronic components <strong>and</strong> semiconductors. However, the major challenges for the<br />

manufacturers of these components is the dem<strong>and</strong> for highly customized components <strong>and</strong> high cost involved to setup<br />

the testing <strong>and</strong> developing facilities for such components. Conversely, with the increasing investments in<br />

research <strong>and</strong> development of electronics <strong>and</strong> semiconductors, it is expected that the impact of such challenges will<br />

minimize over the coming years.<br />

The radiation hardened electronics <strong>and</strong> semiconductors market is segmented on the basis of applications <strong>and</strong><br />

geography. The application segment comprises aerospace applications, defense applications <strong>and</strong> space applications.<br />

The space applications are further classified as commercial applications <strong>and</strong> military applications. The radiation<br />

hardened electronics <strong>and</strong> semiconductors market is dominated by players such as BAE Systems, Honeywell<br />

International, Inc., Microsemi Corporation, Xilinx Corporation, Atmel Corporation, Maxwell Technologies, Intersill<br />

Corp., Texas Instruments, Inc., Linear Technology Corp. <strong>and</strong> ST Microelectronics.<br />

This report is a complete study of current trends in the market, industry growth drivers, <strong>and</strong> restraints. It provides<br />

market projections for the coming years. It includes analysis of recent developments in technology, Porter’s five<br />

force model analysis <strong>and</strong> detailed profiles of top industry players. The report also includes a review of micro <strong>and</strong><br />

macro factors essential for the existing market players <strong>and</strong> new entrants along with detailed value chain analysis.<br />
