Reliable Electronics for Extreme Aerospace and Defense Conditions: Radiation-Resistant Solutions by FORTEC Switzerland
In the avionics, space, and military industries, electronic components must perform with absolute reliability under extreme conditions. These systems operate in environments exposed to high radiation, extreme acceleration, vibrations, shocks, and temperature fluctuations, whether during space missions, high-altitude flights, or military operations. Despite these challenges, the technology must remain compact, lightweight, and highly efficient.
FORTEC Switzerland collaborates with leading manufacturers, including Crane Aerospace & Electronics (CAE), Advanced Energy (AE), Cincon, and Cosel, to deliver radiation-resistant DC/DC converters and EMI filters tailored for demanding applications.
These power solutions are trusted in satellite programs like the Hubble Telescope, Mars Science Laboratory, Cassini-Huygens mission, and the ISS, as well as in high-reliability military and avionics applications, such as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), radar systems, and electronic warfare equipment. Their deployment across these sectors underscores their exceptional durability, quality, and reliability.
The available converters and filters comply with MIL-PRF-38534 Classes H and K and meet radiation hardness levels (TID) P, L, and R, ensuring suitability for the most demanding environments.
