Overview

Description

Over the last decade, satellites and spacecraft have seen an exponential increase in the need for onboard data processing and storage demands. Additionally, major satellite manufacturers have recently announced their latest satellites to be modular, fully digital, and capable of in-orbit reconfigurability. To meet these demands, satellite and payload manufacturers are using high-end FPGAs, ASICs, and processors. AMD’s Kintex XQRKU060 FPGA is a radiation hardened FPGA that has comparable performance to commercial counterparts in demanding computing applications. The Kintex XQRKU060 requires a complex power solution with multiple low-voltage supply rails that can deliver high currents and a need for power supply sequencing to eliminate high inrush currents. In collaboration with AMD and Ibeos, Renesas offers a Kintex XQRKU060 development board with the FPGA powered by Renesas' Radiation Hardened products.
