Advancing the use of FPGA-based OBCs in space - with Xiphos

About this episode

In this episode we speak with Edwin Faier, President & Director of Business Development at Xiphos Systems Corporation.

Xiphos is a Canadian manufacturer of on-board computers and processors, and a satsearch member, and in this episode we discuss advancing the use of FPGA-based OBCs in space applications, covering the following topics:

  • How FPGA-based On-board Computers (OBCs) and Systems on Chips (SoCs) compare to standard microprocessor- and microcontroller-based architectures.
  • The sort of missions and applications that are suitable for FPGA-based SoCs.
  • How the design, testing, integration, and qualification of such systems can differ from computing resources that don't require logic configuration.
  • The emerging opportunities that FPGA-based OBCs and SoCs can offer satellite integrators.

To find out more about today's guests please view the Xiphos supplier hub on satsearch, and to stay up to date with all of our work, please join the satsearch mailing list to receive our weekly newsletter.
