Teledyne e2v Expands DDR4 Space Memory Portfolio With 8 GB and 16 GB NASA Grade Flight Models Available by the End of 2026
New high-density DDR4 memories provide spacecraft designers with additional options for data-intensive processing, artificial intelligence and onboard computing applications.
GRENOBLE, France, Nov. 12, 2026 — Teledyne e2v Semiconductors, a Teledyne Technologies company, today announced 8 GB and 16 GB NASA Grade flight models of its radiation-tolerant DDR4 memory, available by the end of 2026. The devices give satellite and space payload designers more onboard memory for Earth observation, communications payloads and artificial intelligence (AI) while meeting NASA quality and assurance requirements.
Onboard processing, high-resolution imaging, software-defined payloads and AI workloads all call for larger amounts of fast, reliable memory. Placing more capacity in each device lets engineers use fewer components. This saves board space, lowers power consumption and simplifies the system.
Both models share the pinout of the existing DDR4 family, so customers can move from 4GB to 8 GB to 16 GB without redesigning their boards. The family serves government space agency programs and commercial New Space operators.
"Our customers are putting more computing power into every spacecraft," said Frederic Devrière, Product Marketing Manager, Teledyne e2v, "and they need memory that keeps pace without adding risk. These flight models let them plan for that growth now.".
The new models build on Teledyne e2v's continued investment in space-grade semiconductors, including radiation-tolerant memories, processors and data converters. Together, these products help spacecraft manufacturers raise onboard computing performance while maintaining long-term mission reliability.
Engineering samples and qualification information are available from Teledyne e2v. Full product details are available at Space Radiation Tolerant DDR4 Memory | Teledyne e2v | E2V Semiconductors.
Visitors attending Space Tech Expo Europe in Bremen, Germany, from Nov. 17-19, 2026, are invited to visit the Teledyne e2v team to learn more about the expanded DDR4 portfolio and discuss their upcoming space programs.
