Moog Debuts New Radiation-Hardened Space Computer – Information Today Web

Moog is actuation discover a newborn expanse machine fashioned to hold the next-generation of on-orbit profession needs. The consort declared the Moog Cascade Single Board Computer (SBC) on July 9. It is a radiation-hardened expanse machine for multi-mission, bus/payload applications for every orbital regimes.

The SBC also incorporates Layer 2 ethernet alter capabilities for accumulation communications, modern fault-tolerance and correction, as substantially as section endorsement features.

The SBC was matured finished an interior investigate and utilization information in connexion with Microchip Technology, which was conception of the early-engagement ecosystem for NASA’s next-generation High-Performance Spaceflight Computing (HPSC) processor. Moog Cascade SBC features Microchip’s PIC64-HPSC microprocessor, which is a radiation-hardened, 10-core, RISC-V processor. 

“The Moog Cascade SBC module alter a momentous aptitude to the expanse accord with its high-speed computational, radiation-hardened, interoperability and modern section features. We are entertained to be employed with Microchip, JPL and NASA in onward this profession for forthcoming missions,” said Chris Hodge, Moog Avionics generalized manager.
