Tender Details

Tenders are invited for On Chip Integrated Power Converter for Advanced Field Programmable Gate Arrays (Artes at 5c.440)

The objective of this activity is to design, manufacture and test an on-chip integrated power converter for high performance Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) applications to reduce size and footprint. Targeted Improvements: 50% reduction in FPGA application footprint, fourfold increase in reliability and 20% increase in efficiency. Description: Currently external power supplies are used to power FPGAs in space applications. This limits the performance of the FPGAs, due to unwanted resonances created by an inductive-capacitive interface, which amplifies any current spikes or perturbations. Integrating the power converter into the same package as the FPGA has the potential to overcome the above limitations, allowing for higher FPGA performance and a significant reduction of the interface pin count, as well as improving the reliability. Taking benefit from progress achieved for terrestrial applications, where the power supply is integrated in the microcontroller or FPGA, this activity will further develop the technology for space applications. A concept trade-off will be carried out to select the best integration option, either in a single- or multi-die technology, together with passive component integration. An integrated power converter breadboard will be designed, manufactured and tested in a laboratory environment.Procurement Policy: C(1) = Activity restricted to non-prime contractors (incl. SMEs).
