Honeywell has developed a line of electronic components designed specifically to meet the reliability requirements of computers operating in technically advanced military and commercial aerospace conditions.

This microelectronics product line includes integrated circuits manufactured to withstand the shock, vibration and extreme radiation conditions that occur in space and other military environments. These components were developed using the company's radiation-hardened, silicon-on-insulator (SOI) complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) technology.

The new microelectronic product line includes the HX5000, a 12-million gate application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC), designed specifically for radiation-tolerant and radiation-hardened applications. The HX5000 can be configured by customers using the Synopsys design automation galaxy ASIC design software to integrate digital logic, microcontrollers, multichannel multigigabit per second communication port and static memory functions in a single integrated circuit. The HXSRO1608 is a 16-million-bit static read access memory (SRAM) that provides a memory function with a memory that is four times denser than earlier SRAM components. The HXSRO1608 consumes 60% less power and requires 75% less circuit board space than previous available 5 V SRAM products. The new SRAM can be used in either new system designs or to replace older SRAM functions.
