Next-generation AI semiconductor device verified to withstand space radiation
South Korea\'s Ministry of Science and ICT and the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute said on Wednesday a joint team has, for the first time, verified next-generation AI semiconductor technology that operates stably in a space-radiation environment.
