| Building a chip to resist the fires of Venus Not even a Nvidia chip gets that hot NASA boffins are working on a chip which can handle the superheated, globally warmed heat of Venus. Venus is so hot and its atmosphere so pressurised that robots and chips have low shelf-life. They also have to be heavy to be protected. Phil Neudeck, an electrical engineer at NASA's Glenn Research Centre has a cunning to create simple unprotected robots on Venus that can measure wind, temperature, chemistry, pressure, and seismic waves. To do that they need chips that are not going to fry for several months. http://fudzilla.com/news/processors/...fires-of-venus |
