Novachips Co, announced the launch of the NN765R, a customised COTS (Commercial Off-The-Shelf) M.2 SSD designed to meet the demanding requirements of satellite and embedded system applications.
The NN765R is engineered to protect its components from low-energy protons using special coating materials, while enhanced ECC (Error Correction Code) and firmware recovery technology correct bit errors caused by high-energy proton exposure.
Leveraging expertise gained from avionic applications, the NN765R delivers exceptional reliability in extreme temperatures while consuming less than 3watts of power – even during full-speed operation with read/write performance up to 3GB/s. To ensure mechanical robustness, the SSD meets MIL-STD-810G shock and vibration standards and features a reinforced body secured with dual side screws.
“Protons trapped by Earth’s magnetic fields are a major cause of errors and failures in electronic components operating in satellite environments,” said Sejong Yoo, General Manager of Novachips. “Our customised COTS M.2 SSD has demonstrated the ability to withstand proton flux more than 1,000 times greater than the actual satellite environment. This makes it an efficient, high-bandwidth local storage solution where traditional space-grade memory components cannot keep up.”
The NN765R series is offered in a standard dual-side M.2 80mm form factor with capacities of 330GB, 660GB, 1TB, and 2TB. Its radiation-shielding materials and customised firmware can also be adapted to other form factors to meet specific project requirements.
With its combination of radiation resistance, power efficiency, and high performance, the NN765R provides an affordable and reliable solution for next-generation satellite and aerospace systems.
