Avalanche Technology has reaffirmed its leadership as the only provider of truly space-grade non-volatile memory, delivering solutions that meet all five criteria required for space missions.
Defining Space Grade
While many technologies claim to be space worthy, true Space Grade requires that 5 objective criteria be met simultaneously or risk the mission.
SURVIVE
01
Survive radiation without disruption.
RETAIN
02
Retain data for the life of a mission.
ENDURE
03
Endure unlimited writes.
COMMIT
04
Commit data instantly.
PROVE
05
Prove real space heritage.
// COMPLIANCE
Partial Compliance Leads to Failure
In space systems, meeting only some criteria is not enough. A technology that survives radiation but loses data, wears out over time, or delays data commitment will fail when it matters most.
// PARTIAL_COMPLIANCE
The Cost of Tradeoffs
Traditional memory technologies force engineers to make significant compromises. Flash memory wears out. SRAM loses data without power. All are radiation sensitive, including DRAM. Mitigation required to overcome these failure mechanisms result in bloated systems, expensive to design, build, test, launch and maintain.
// COMPLETE_SOLUTION
No Tradeoffs Required
Avalanche Space Grade MRAM uniquely delivers on all 5 criteria simultaneously, through radiation immunity, permanent data retention, unlimited endurance, deterministic nanosecond writes, and proven flight qualification.
// WHY AVALANCHE
PROVEN IN SPACE. UNMATCHED ON EARTH.
Only Avalanche Technology memory is truly Space Grade.
