Research abstract
Space Micro, teamed with Aerojet Sacramento and NxGen Electronics, proposes manufacturing maturation of high performance, rad hard miniaturized DACS controller electronics for interceptors, space, and booster propulsion, based on both proven and emerging radiation hardening technologies and COTS commercially developed advanced microelectronics packaging techniques. This MDA Phase I leverages and builds upon the current SBIR work for MDA and Aerojet on the DACS driver circuits.
