Fault-Tolerant, Low-Power Microcontroller for smart sensing and control in space

Cel

Current space missions — particularly small satellites, distributed sensing systems, and modular payloads — increasingly demand compact, low-power, radiation-tolerant microcontrollers (MCUs) that are export-free, cost-effective, and flexible for on-board subsystem control. Today, space integrators face costly, often non EU-origin MCUs that are oversized, export-restricted and power-hungry. Deep-tech SME SkyLabs (Slovenia) proposes PicoSkyFT-MCU, a European, ITAR-free, radiation-tolerant microcontroller optimised for decentralised small-sat subsystems (smart sensors, actuators, power/housekeeping). PicoSkyFT-MCU core breakthrough and innovation is a fully European, radiation-tolerant, low-power 8-bit microcontroller tailored for distributed smart subsystems in satellites. Breakthrough includes the deep-tech PicoSkyFT-MCU 8-bit fault-tolerant MCU, manufactured using European 22nm Fully-Depleted Silicon-on-Insulator (FD-SOI) technology. It eliminates reliance on ITAR-bound components and reduces per-unit cost by up to 80%, accelerating Europe's path toward strategic autonomy in space electronics. Its support for modular architectures and plug-and-play integration will unlock a new generation of flexible, decentralised spacecraft and payload systems. By developing and validating a TRL 6 prototype of the PicoSkyFT-MCU with embedded peripherals, mixed-signal support, and proven resilience in relevant radiation and thermal environments, the project will pave the way for mass adoption in European small satellites, smart sensors, and edge-compute platforms. PicoSkyFT-MCU addresses the call’s outcomes by (i) achieving investment, market and technology readiness to apply successfully for EIC Accelerator; (ii) engaging EU-aligned investors and strategic customers for follow-on financing; and (iii) positioning for national/regional schemes. Skylabs is the IPR owner and has the necessary rights to commercialise the IPR of the PicoSkyFT-MCU technology to be further developed.
