NanoXplore

NanoXplore SAS is a French semiconductor company founded in Montoire-sur-le-Loir, France, specializing in space-qualified Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) and System-on-Chip (SoC) devices for space and defense applications. The company's BRAVE family of products — including the NG-MEDIUM FPGA and the BRAVE1 processor SoC — provides radiation-tolerant, high-performance programmable logic and processing capabilities for satellite onboard computers, data handling units, scientific instruments, and communication systems. NanoXplore works closely with ESA and CNES and its components have been selected for numerous European space missions. The company addresses a strategic European need for sovereign, radiation-hardened semiconductor devices for space, providing a domestic alternative to US-controlled components for European satellite programs.
