All FPGAs share several design methodologies, yet each of them face specific challenges. The anti–fuse FPGAs are currently heavily used in most electronic equipment for space yet there are other emerging technologies too: Flash–based and SRAM–based. The use of COTS FPGA is also increasing; specially for space missions with shorter lifetime and less quality constraints. The aim of the workshop is to share experiences and wishes among FPGA designers, FPGA vendors and research teams developing methodologies to address radiation mitigation techniques and reconfigurable systems.<br>The topics related to FPGAs for space are covering (not limited too):<br>– general design, verification and test issues and good practices – performance achievements and potential problems – power consumption achievements and potential issues – design tools performance, good practices and potential limitations – radiation mitigation techniques, tools and potential limitations (avoiding repetitions of what has already been presented at RADECS, NSREC and SEE Symposium) – trends of FPGA usage in space applications – reconfigurable systems – lessons learned: ensuring successful and safe use of FPGA in space applications – choosing the best FPGA type for our space application – export license limitations / changes / ITAR / EAR – package and assembly challenges – companion non–volatile memory (when required) experience<br>
