Summary

A 3U Space VPX platform featuring the AMD Versal AI Edge XQRVE2302 Adaptive SoC for Space applications. This processor card is available in either a 160 mm or 220 mm deep Space VPX form factor, equipped with Space Grade DDR4 Memory module from Teledyne e2v, and a fully radiation-tolerant core power supply developed in collaboration with TI and EPC Space. Built-in CAN bus and SpaceWire connectivity can allow this module to operate at the heart of a satellite system as the controller, or as a data capture and processing module.

The platform is designed with components capable of surviving a minimum of 20 krad TID and are free of destructive SEE to at least 43 MeV·cm2/mg. The /DEV/PB version is for development purposes and fitted with commercial/ engineering model components. Flight builds are described in the option table below and undergo additional acceptance testing.
