Space Heritage
IR HiRel’s decades-long space heritage
Since 1947, IR HiRel, an Infineon Technologies’ company, has provided high reliability memory, power, and RF solutions to support space exploration and advance our knowledge of the universe. From Voyager 1, the furthest human-made object 24.9 billion km away from Earth, to nearby low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites just 100 km above our planet, we at IR HiRel elevate space missions near and far.
