Teledyne Micropac engineers high-reliability optoelectronic components and microelectronic​ assemblies designed to deliver exceptional performance in the most demanding environments, from space missions to military operations, where failure is not an option. ​

​​​Features of High-Reliability Components

  • Ruggedness & Durability. Components in military and space applications are built to withstand harsh environmental conditions such as temperature extremes, high levels of vibration, shock, radiation, and vacuum conditions prevalent in space.
  • Quality and Longevity. High-reliability components undergo thorough quality control processes to ensure consistent performance over an extended lifespan. They are designed to operate reliably for extended periods without failure.
  • Tolerance to Harsh Environments. These components are engineered to endure conditions such as moisture, dust, thermal cycling, and exposure to various chemicals without degradation in performance.
  • Fail-Safe Design and Redundancy. Fail-safe design principles aim to minimize the impact of a failure on the overall system. Redundancy is often built into t​hese components or systems to ensure continued operation even if one component fails.
  • Compliance with Standards. High-reliability components must meet or exceed stringent industry and military standards such as MIL-STD (Military Standard) requirements, which outline criteria for performance, testing, and environmental considerations.​​
