‘Historic’: Chinese team makes world’s first 2D industrial chip for military use

Chinese scientists have made a “historic leap” in developing a chip that can cope with extreme levels of radiation.
The Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) chip has a wide range of potential uses, including satellite command and control systems, spaceborne computers and weapons systems.
Its hardware can be reconfigured after manufacturing to perform a wide variety of specific tasks.
This flexibility makes FPGAs useful for custom computing applications and electronic systems that may need to be…
