CAN in Space workshop

Thursday 10 Mar 2016, 09:00 → 18:20 Europe/Amsterdam

Einstein (ESA/ESTEC)

Alberto Valverde Carretero (ESA), Gianluca Furano (ESA/Data Systems Division), Giorgio Magistrati (ESA/Data Systems Division), Johan Carvajal Godinez (Delft University)

In space avionics we are witnessing a change from highly centralized intelligence to distributed autonomous functions, thanks to the availability of high capacity FPGAs and microcontrollers that offload tasks alternatively concentrated in the on-board computer. The glue of this change are the command and control buses, and a similar process led in the late 80s to the development and successive adoption of CAN as an automotive and industrial automation bus. The CAN workshop will include tutorials, exhibits together with presentations on CAN bus physical and protocol layers. The first return on experience at one year from publication of ECSS-E-ST-50-15C will be given, as well as an update on flying and about-to-fly CAN applications. Additionally an overview of modern design tools and method commonly used by automotive industry in design, development, production and maintenance of CAN bus networks for safety critical applications will be given.
