Develop  and Validate Radiation-Tolerant Microelectronics for Canadian Space  Applications — PI: Dr. Li  Chen. Future  spacecraft will have more complex avionics that produce large amounts of data,  requiring enhanced on-board information processing and rapid delivery of  results to end-users. This project aims to develop radiation-tolerant,  reliable, lightweight, low-power and cost-effective microelectronics based on  advanced commercial available technologies for space applications. The project  will also help accelerate current research on radiation effects in space systems.
