Under the contract with Frontgrade Technologies, Everspin will provide its PERSYST MRAM technology, logic design, and back-end-of-line manufacturing services to support the development and demonstration of a Strategic Radiation Hardened (SRH) high-reliability eMRAM macro for use in future products being developed by Frontgrade.
Commenting Sanjeev Aggarwal, President Technologies and CEO of Everspin Technologies, said, “Extending our decade-long relationship to next-generation MRAM, this project will expand MRAM’s use and availability to more defence and aerospace radiation-hardened use cases.”
This initiative supports both current and future Department of Defense (DoD) strategic and commercial space system requirements. It will be manufactured using Skywater RH90 CMOS in Bloomington, Minnesota and Everspin’s back-end-of-line MRAM process in Chandler, Arizona.
The contract is worth $9.25 million for Everspin Technologies over multiple years, with the current phase valued at approximately $1.25 million.
Everspin also announced a new strategic contract with QuickLogic under which it will provide its AgILYST MRAM technology. This initiative supports both current and future Department of Defense (DoD) strategic and space system requirements and is valued at $1.8 million.
“Everspin is pleased to continue its collaboration with its partners QuickLogic and Honeywell to integrate MRAM directly into the FPGA product to support the DoD,” said Aggarwal. “This project builds upon over 12 years of Everspin’s experience in delivering MRAM IP for strategic radiation hardened and space applications.”
