A sovereign technology of custom integrated circuits for aeronautics, space and defence applications
The challenge for our customers is to use standard semiconductor manufacturing technologies to maintain the cost competitiveness of their products while meeting the high standards required for their applications.
High reliability is key for aeronautics, space and defence applications.
IC’Alps is EN 9100 certified / AS 9100 / JISQ 9100 (information in the IAQG-OASIS database).
Through our qualified design flow, we have demonstrated our ability to establish, and continually improve internal operational processes to ensure supply of the highest quality Integrated Circuits, as well as the long-term reliability of our supply chain, and the traceability of every design project.
In addition to the development of IC and validation of prototypes, we can provide full supply chain management of your IC products. Being an independent company, we have developed partnerships with leading semiconductor manufacturers to offer the optimum supply chain on such criteria as cost effectiveness, ITAR free supply, EU-located, and production capabilities.
Aeronautics and military products may span more than 20 years, and obsolescence mitigation can result in time consuming and costly headaches to our customers. This makes ASIC an essential solution over COTS to secure the long-term supply and quality at predictable costs.
With the increasing threat of cyber-attacks, one major challenge is to ensure products are efficiently protected to operate with no compromise on data security and user’s safety. We can provide appropriate solutions to secure your IC by integrating advanced features such as: • New generation of Self-Timed Ring based True Number Random Generator (STRNG) enabling high quality random numbers at very high bite rate and with very good power efficiency. • Innovative and patented Self-Timed Ring based Physical Unclonable Function (STRPUF) for a secured storage of cryptographic secrets and unique IC authentication with a response latency reducing attack window and process sensitivity. We can also integrate security IP from 3rd parties.
Radiation immunity is a primary concern for space applications to guarantee reliability and operational lifetime of their embedded electronics. Leveraging the individual experience of our team members in nuclear or space domains, we have the knowhow to design TID/SEL/SET/SEU robust ASIC solutions by implementing design hardening with limited impact on performances on standard technology.
