This "you" doesn't apply to me as I don't live in Russia. The problems with satellites are mostly due to competely different factors, not the state of radhard IC design. For example, transition from imported to domestic

It's not "huge" problems. Russian state of art radhard design is mostly on par with what exists in Europe and just a couple of generations behind the USA. Most of production is obviously abroad, and nobody actually cares, as

I'm not 100% sure (and I don't actually hate Arduino), but I see it this way. Whenever the entrance barrier becomes much lower, quality and reliability standards also fall, and that's what causes disgust of "real hardcor

The first Radhard Atmega device arrived just five years ago, so maybe someone is in a process of certification now) But your question sounds a bit like "why there are no Ferrari semi trucks?" Just because they are intended for dif

"Yes, the arduino user will have achieved results" The problem is that good engineer normally spends 20% of the time on designing how the circuit works and 80% on designing what happens when something goes wrong. Many guys who st

Oh, I've seen examples of these from the people who managed to work in space industry for decades. Also, I hoped that I gave enough terms and definitions in the beginning( I would appreciate any feedback on what could make the text bet

Your point is very valid, in retrospect I think that I shouldn't have changed the title.

That was for sure "ego flexing", or, I'd say trying to be sarcastic about guys who are unwell with Arduino. Arduino itself is completely fine, but hardcore hardware guys aren't always happy with amateur who tend to use A

"Electronic devices are more reliable with tin-lead solder" That would've been true, if lead solder didn't cause Single Event Upsets in storage cells.

I'll fix it, thanks. The problem occurred because it was not translated, but more "rewritten", and this particular figure was changed. Regarding actual question, that wouldn't work unfortunately. "Dumping" isn&
