Design and Qualification Methodology for a Successful Technology Infusion for a Wide Temperature Op-Amp

In this paper, we present a methodology for design and qualification of microelectronics for low temperature applications, which has enabled the successful infusion of a custom designed Operational Amplifier into flight mission. The Op-Amp was designed to target a wide temperature range of -150degC to +125degC for at least 5 years operation for Mars Mission. The design and qualification methodology developed have provided the critical path for the technology infusion.
