Power Management ICs (PMICs)

Telecommunications and defense industries demand ever-increasing functionality in equipment such as satellites, probes and spacecrafts. Frontgrade offers a family of radiation hardened Power Management Integrated Circuits (PMICs) designed for high reliability applications.

Our PMIC portfolio encompasses rad-hard by design Linear Adjustable Voltage Regulators and Pulse Width Modulator controllers, as well as highly integrated Smart Power Switch Controllers that provide extensive fault detection, isolation, and recovery capabilities in a single package. Frontgrade PMICs are the space industry’s first highly integrated power switch controllers that provide extensive fault detection, isolation, and recovery capabilities in a single package.

Intelligent PowerMOSFET controllers with load-side inrush current limiting, our PMICs also offer eFUSE protection of current faults. Adding PMBus™ protocol over I2C communication, these devices provide system-level integration with reduced size, weight, power, and cost.
