Avalanche Technology, the leader in MRAM technology is introducing the next-generation VNX+ storage module. Designed specifically for military and Low Earth Orbit (LEO) environments, this innovative solution delivers unparalleled radiation immunity, survivability in congested electromagnetic environments, and highest-reliability performance using Avalanche’s true Space Grade MRAM.
Built with Avalanche’s high-density Space Grade MRAM and running on a Lattice CertusPro™-NX FPGA known for its radiation tolerance and industry-leading low SER (Soft Error Rate), the module achieves true radiation immunity without the traditional trade-offs in density, speed, or endurance. This breakthrough disrupts conventional industry approaches while leveraging standard form factors and interfaces, allowing partners to seamlessly integrate sub systems from multiple suppliers.
While many technologies claim to be “Space Grade,” true Space Grade requires that 5 objective criteria be met simultaneously. Space Grade technology must:
1. survive radiation without disruption
2. retain data for the life of a mission
3. endure unlimited writes
4. commit data instantly
5. prove real space heritage
In space systems, a technology that survives radiation but loses data, wears out over time, delays data commitment, or lacks flight heritage is not Space Grade. Partial compliance leads to failure. Avalanche Space Grade MRAM uniquely delivers on all 5 criteria, through radiation immunity, permanent data retention, unlimited endurance, deterministic nanosecond writes, and proven flight qualification, without tradeoffs or compromise.
Today’s announcement focuses on these two criteria: Survive and Retain. The Avalanche Technology VNX+ Storage platform is engineered to survive in the harshest space environments with radiation immunity by design, leveraging field-proven Space Grade MRAM that provides tolerance to radiation effects. This includes immunity to Single Event Effects (SEE) and disruptions up to 100 krad minimum ensuring mission-critical data remains uncorrupted and the VNX+ device remains fully operational even during demanding LEO and Military Operations.
