Space-grade packages

Space-grade devices are designed with QML-certified packages, including QML Class V (QML-V) ceramic and QML Class P (QML-P) plastic packages designed to operate in the extreme conditions of space. Figure 23 shows a QML-V ceramic package and QML-P plastic package.

 QML packaging capability
                    allows TI to sell analog products for space-grade designs, including QML-V
                    ceramic and QML-P plastic packages. Figure 23 QML packaging capability allows TI to sell analog products for space-grade designs, including QML-V ceramic and QML-P plastic packages.

Radiation-hardening techniques, including extended burn-in testing, and lot-by-lot qualification, enable space-grade components to meet stringent requirements of QML certification. Figure 24 shows how space-grade packages are exposed to radiation for testing.

Understanding how to balance reliability requirements is important when considering which devices and packages will perform the best on the PCB in certain applications. Ultimately, product and packaging tests help TI prepare products for shipment to customers all over the world. Figure 25 shows the final test in TI’s facilities before the company sends products to a product distribution center.
