Hi guys! I know I pronounce SpaceX wrong. It is not a bug, it is a feature :) P.S. I've got a new mic, let me know how it sounds! Next video is gonna be comparison btw DOJO vs Google TPU vs...
Hello cutie, with the new mic; your voice is much louder even with AC running in my background. Informative vid, also I would like to mention about multi-layer insulation (MLI) aka gold foil which prevent harmful infrared/thermal radiation to the spacecraft hardware. Looking forward to your next vid!
Another great video! Your English is awesome. I'm an older EE who trained to design chips but did hybrid/electric vehicles and batteries instead, go figure. Now I'm using these videos to inspire my 17 year old son who is going to pursue an EE degree in the near future. I love the cutting edge technology videos, but if you do another basic instructional video I would like to see a discussion or compare/contrast of Microcontrollers, PGA/FPGA's, ASIC's, and SoC's. What they are and why we would use them instead of a modular approach. I don't think most people understand the basic reasons we use them. Thank you!
Good voice, whatever modifications you're doing to your voice works. I can still hear your natural voice under the modification but it's not bothersome. Odd, but not bothersome. Still hard to believe your natural voice sounds like that but whatever.
What I find interesting is the Apollo electronics were far more radiation tolerant than todays electronics. But it was a LOT slower. the use of things like core store and wired memories were very stable but very small capacity. The Semiconductors used were more reliable mainly due to the massively larger dimensions of the transistors, that made them far less prone to single event cosmic rays that are well over 10,000 times smaller transistors used now.
Please do more space and FSD computer science. That’s far more interesting than normal computers hardware. I bet you will get a lot more subscribers to boot
I've often wondered what kind of processors are used in space and how they address radiation concerns, thank you for an insightful look at this tech. Great presentation, thank you. Subscribed.
Definitely make all of the videos you mentioned! Even with your accent, I have never heard anyone explain the world of micro-computing as understandable as you make it! After hearing the first video by you I would recommend you to anyone who wants to learn more about this...
I retired from the electronics industry for about 3 years now, and noticed a move away from Mil Spec and Rad Hard components for over 15 years, but guess they will be making a comeback now. Thank you for such a thorough presentation!
Thank you! Space adopts more consumer chips because consumer get more robust (design and test for extended temperature, adoption of SoI, advanced digital techniques, etc.).
I'm only a "half geek" and appreciate your channel very much. I find your presentation to be understandable with the limited knowledge I have. This means I am actually learning something here. Thanks! I'm 67 and when I was about 20 I had a boss that bought a 1200.00 scientific calculator. You can now buy a much more powerful scientific calculator for 10.00 to 20.00 at Walmart. How things have changed. I think it was about 1961 when my dad came home from work (at a GM plant) and said he saw a computer for the first time. It was a basement level of the whole assembly factory that was refrigerated and had rows and rows of what looked like tape recording machines among other stuff. He said you could feel the heat generated when walking by some of them and it took up the whole basement area. Now, I'm sure my smart phone has far more capability than ten thousand or more of such antiquated computer systems.
When I started making chips, I had as one of my teachers the designer of the memory chips that were placed in the Mariner spacecrafts. They were 1K bit 4 micron CMOS technology chips. I imagined that he had made a contribution to a design that is as close for eternity as possible. When our sun has reached its red giant stage and might have swallowed earth, then those spacecrafts are still coasting among the stars. Now more than 35 years later I am still making chips where most other designers have problems to make them. The memory that I needed for a special project would have taken a team of a few people about a year to develop. I didn't have so long time. So, I made it my self in 2 weeks. that was 3 micron technology. This memory then was transferred to 2 micron and used in the grey display drivers for the LCD displays of the first mobile phones. They made about 300 million chips with that memory. Now I have designed down to 40 nm. There was not yet an opportunity for me to go smaller.
My dear anastasi, I miss so much, our times in the lab. When we developed so meny diffrent types of processors. How I wish that we could continue to do this work still today. I also remember my sister Ana Isabel and how much she loved learning. How to make computer chips and the applications. I think that my sister Ana was a great influance on you and your high tech geekness. Well in fondence, I remember you with love. Yours, Joel Ramirez Ramirez.
Super interesting video. I have just finished my Master Thesis about software redundancy for A53 processors in radiation environments, and it's great that more and more people get to know the technologies used in space. Keep it going!
Really well done! Lots of great basic pros and cons. The balance of performance vs risk is really well described. You have described my career in video.
your videos are excellent. I would like to watch more videos regarding chips in space. If i could suggest one thing please, fewer abbreviations like FPGA. I am not in the chip industry, difficult to follow video while looking up many abbreviations.
Yes you did a very good job! Absolutely enjoyed your topic of space chip industry production and there applications. Excellent delivery, you definitely require a 👍🏽 for your hard work in producing a top notch video.
That was super interesting, I'd def want to hear more about the technical challenges for space electronics that I never hear about. I knew about bit flips, but didn't stop to think of how much catastrophic they are in space missions. This is more of a sci-fi question, but is it technically possible to create artificial magnetic fields (similar to Earth's) around smaller space crafts or satellites without damaging equipment?
A well researched and informative video,, more comprehensive than any others I have watched on this subject. If you have enough extra information four a second video on this subject i would love to see it. Thank you, an excellent video.
This was awesome!!!!! I've been talking to folks about satellite processes, and didn't know a lot about it. This was an excellent opportunity to learn about rad hard chips.
The new mic sounds pretty nice! The level might be a *tad* on the hot side, but overall I think we've got a winner! The intelligibility/ clarity is much better. I noticed some comments from viewers whose ears are sensitive to higher frequencies who are saying they find the sibilance ("esses") unpleasant. I find it quite pleasant, but their suggestion to use a light amount of de-essing might not be a bad idea to try out.
All of your content choices are excellent. Recently subscribed. I'm personally interested in Tesla and SpaceX, and anything that reflects their core competencies. Neuralink as well. So fly where Inspiration calls and I'll just come along for the ride. Continued success to you!
@ 22:20, you say the hardened chip is "5445". The video text says "5545". Later, the video text again says *5545", and you also say "5545", so I assume "5545" is correct. I very much enjoy your video, and will watch the others you have produced. Spectacular!
Hi Anastasiia, are you willing to continues on this topic? As you stated at the end it's plenty of stuff to spoke about! If so can I suggest exploring Ingenuity hardware? It's rocking a Snapdragon 801, really new hardware on that tiny copter. Could you also explain why the so called "cold bug" is actually happening? Opportunity was lost because of it (after several km and years). Oh, of course I just subs your channel!
LOL i love how @Anastasi goes "Boooring" at 21:25 min. I felt that. HEH in any joke is some truth. So system level hardening is very interesting. Also from compiler and programming pool of people that understand consumer language and coding is maybe on 3 orders of magnitude greater. Hence much more performance and much more aggressive development. That can in theory provide sufficient level of protection even on deep space missions. So yeah very interesting paradigm shift. And for last and least. I found very good subject orientation into chip and its design on your channel. I appreciate your dedication to educate or at least spread knowledge and fascination for silicon industry beside your work.
I like the longer more detailed video. Unfortunately, many people don't like long videos or don't have the time, so it may not be the way to go if you want to maximize views. But, you probably knew that already, so just wanted to say thanks for doing it.
ECC has been used on Earth for many decades, since the 1970s in mainframe and blade computer architectures. Vote processing has also been used in difficult environments like automobiles and power systems which often operate in high static and current surge applications with high voltage components like spark plugs and high rotating magnetic fields (like high speed motors in ECs). . I have heard Musk mention redundancy as a fix for many of the failures that result in RDE (Rapid Disassembly Events) in applications such as rocket engines and connected guidance systems. One solution to high noise environments that I did not hear was "Faraday Cages" which are heavy but very effective in challenging noisy environments. Excellent video. Very well done.
Another solution could be the recently discussed "force fields" (yes, they are real) used to defend against high energy short pulse laser weapon attacks.
Analog (mechanical) computers for launched crafts would be an interesting topic to watch. For example, combined with the most rudimental microprocessors used up there. A question. How much of the protection from radiation would a typical, modern chip need. Let's say if a space traveler would want to use a current gen. laptop like an ASUS, Apple, or Dell? Love the "Not a bug, it's a feature" explanation. The mic sounds almost ASMR, so I think it's good in quality.
Loved it (I am also a EE IC design engineer so this channel is great for me!) . So Silicon on Insulator, ceramic packages and redundancy are all key for Rad hard (good to know). The ceramic package is more expensive but does offer a lower thermal resistance. So I hear that Nvidia is buying Xilinx and ARM this could be a problem for Space X. I watched your video on DOJO and would be interested in the comparison to cerebras . It boggles the mind to think that one DOJO Tile requires 12kw of power or about 15,000 AMPS .
@@roger_is_red No. ARM owns the designs and other intellectual property needed to create custom CPUs. Tesla and Apple use this IP as the foundation of their custom designs. Tesla's FSD and DOJO chips are direct replacements of nVidia's graphics hardware. Tesla does not want a rival in control of a critical part of its hardware stack.
Your vids are great, and you have a very pleasant vocal timbre. Love the detail you give and broad coverage. You could experiment with audio band pass filters on editing to reduce some sounds like “S” hiss. Overall you are fantastic! Don’t worry about mispronouncing Space-Ex … Elon did that on purpose along with his obsession with 420 …. Just ask a New Zealander to pronounce 6🤣😂
Hi Anastasi. Apparently Google has correctly figured out that I would be very interested in your channel and would greatly like this video. They apparently figured that out based on my searches for a FPGA development board. Having been involved in a commercial electronic venture and now being independent, I decided to teach myself Verilog (hardware description language) and will get right to it as soon as the board that I ordered arrives. (Xilinx Artix 7 board).
How about a video on the Apollo electronics. They were far more radiation tolerant than todays electronics, But it was a LOT slower. The use of things like core store and wired memories were very stable but very small capacity. The Semiconductors used were more reliable mainly due to the massively larger dimensions of the transistors, that made them far less prone to single event cosmic rays that are well over 10,000 times smaller transistors used now. Apparently someone turned on an original Command Module core store and the data stored in it 50 years later was still good.
Crazy Idea for you: Water is great for radiation protection. While at the Univ. of Virginia, I saw their "swimming pool" reactor safely protected by H2O. Could a deep spaceship have a double-hull cabin with a thick insulating blanket of water? It could double as a tank for waste recycling with algae and support plants, fish or shrimp for food. (It would be cool to live in a huge fish tank). :-)
Are Hardware Design Engineer by any chance? Very good research and compiling info in a single video. You should also add that so many EU Chip companies also have great Rad-hard devices.
Right, good point. Companies like ST and Infineon both have Radhard products. However, those are not focused on compute, thus have not ended up in this video. Thank you! :)
Anastasi thank You so much for covering modern space silicon technology. The use of Xilinx FPGAs is a new information for me. Just for the log, the Apollo Guidane Computer used in the moon landing in 1969 was built up from nor and nand gates and was an RTL logic. Okay the space industry uses 64Bit modern SoC processor(s) today. Note that the usage of SOI (silicon on insulator) technology in space silicon was also new for me and your explanation was an interesting info, too.
Triple Redundancy was also used on the Space Shuttle in fact, they nicknamed the way the computers worked a group decision, or group vote. As long as 2 of 3 say the same the most voted "opinion" wins! Awesome stuff!
Glad to discover this channel. This combination between the a beautiful lady with a lovely voice and a deep technical information is amazing. Keep up the great work! 😊👏
I am a Manufacturing Engineer. I have been working with computers since 1981 and I realized early-on that if I did not become a computer tech, I would be at the mercy of these machines for the rest of my life. I have an advanced computer on my desk right now. I understand computers and the general concepts that are being discussed in this video presentation, but I can not fully understand what Anastasi is saying! The point of these videos is communication. There is very little communication being successfully completed in this video.
Ciao Anastasia Great video! Considering that in the future the cost to orbit will decrease dramatically if SpaceX succeed with starship will be possible to deploy data center in space? If the hw cost is very high and performance low sadly I think no… And what about starlink satellites hw? How SpaceX managed to put high performance network hw with 20Gbps bandwidth capable of survive at least 4years?
I believe NASA is currently testing the Brainchip Akida neuromorphic SNN chip; with on-chip learning. It would be great for Anastasi to make a video comparing LOIHI, True North and Akida!
Please pardon my lack of knowledge about what blocks what, but why dont they just encase the systems in a lead box? or some other kind of shielding container?
Thank you for your excellent work. May I suggest that Silicon Carbide chips in a future episode would be a great addition to your work. I have just read that Tesla is using this technology on its invertors and possibly in the Starlink satellites too.
@@johnkeyes8691 thanks 🙏 John it's pure speculation about the space application being that almost nobody knows what's in the Starlink sats .. the inverter application is real
Not sure what chips spacex is using on there sub orbital test ships but what i got was each ecu has 6 chips ÷ 3 so 3 sets of 2 have to agree with one another and the computing is a highly modified version of linux

the US Air force has used shielded computers since the 80s. we used them at the ammo dump in Spangdahlem, Germany.
Good one, thank you
Anastasi thank You so much for covering modern space silicon technology. The use of Xilinx FPGAs is a new information for me. Just for the log, the Apollo Guidane Computer used in the moon landing in 1969 was built up from nor and nand gates and was an RTL logic. Okay the space industry uses 64Bit modern SoC processor(s) today. Note that the usage of SOI (silicon on insulator) technology in space silicon was also new for me and your explanation was an interesting info, too.
Great ! Thank you
Oh man, I didnt know computing and radiation combine in this niche use case. Cool.
Love from india ❤️
Would be interested in your speculations on HW4. You were spot on for Dojo with just a picture, any insights into HW4?
Triple Redundancy was also used on the Space Shuttle in fact, they nicknamed the way the computers worked a group decision, or group vote. As long as 2 of 3 say the same the most voted "opinion" wins! Awesome stuff!
LOVE your voice and accent. Very pretty! Where are you from?
Glad to discover this channel. This combination between the a beautiful lady with a lovely voice and a deep technical information is amazing. Keep up the great work! 😊👏
Thank you
I am a Manufacturing Engineer. I have been working with computers since 1981 and I realized early-on that if I did not become a computer tech, I would be at the mercy of these machines for the rest of my life. I have an advanced computer on my desk right now. I understand computers and the general concepts that are being discussed in this video presentation, but I can not fully understand what Anastasi is saying! The point of these videos is communication. There is very little communication being successfully completed in this video.
Ciao Anastasia
Great video!
Considering that in the future the cost to orbit will decrease dramatically if SpaceX succeed with starship will be possible to deploy data center in space? If the hw cost is very high and performance low sadly I think no…
And what about starlink satellites hw? How SpaceX managed to put high performance network hw with 20Gbps bandwidth capable of survive at least 4years?
Ciao Alberto! Thank you.
Starlink runs on lower orbit, so less radiation. Otherwise, they use sw and hw techniques I’ve discussed in the video.
Ciao !
Very informative. Can you make a video regarding future technology developed beyond 2nm process? is that the limit?
Do you think neuromorphic chips be used in space technologies, bci ?
I believe NASA is currently testing the Brainchip Akida neuromorphic SNN chip; with on-chip learning. It would be great for Anastasi to make a video comparing LOIHI, True North and Akida!
Hi! Redundancy is applied to storage too? And, do you think quantum processors will be affected if they work near to a black hole? XD Ciao ;)
Please pardon my lack of knowledge about what blocks what, but why dont they just encase the systems in a lead box? or some other kind of shielding container?
You make great videos, but I am overwhelmed by the information dump. Please consider a blog to accompany each video with the tech stuff.
Thank you. I will consider
5:01 sts-48 mision - what year? what computer(s)?
Thank you for your excellent work. May I suggest that Silicon Carbide chips in a future episode would be a great addition to your work. I have just read that Tesla is using this technology on its invertors and possibly in the Starlink satellites too.
SiC as well as GaN are good for power. Though, not sure about space applications. Will research.
Thank you
@@johnkeyes8691 thanks 🙏 John it's pure speculation about the space application being that almost nobody knows what's in the Starlink sats .. the inverter application is real
@@AnastasiInTech thank you 🙏 Anastasia the space application is pretty much speculation born out of the secrecy of the Starlink sats 👍
This is so fun, love seeing bright minds at play.
Not sure what chips spacex is using on there sub orbital test ships but what i got was each ecu has 6 chips ÷ 3 so 3 sets of 2 have to agree with one another and the computing is a highly modified version of linux
