MDA's space electronics division located in Montreal, Canada, has been designing, manufacturing and testing complex electronic sub-systems for space missions over the past 40 years. These include platform and payload computers and avionics suites, motor control, data storage and digital signal processing, as well as RF electronics and power converters. MDA has significant heritage in implementing CAN for space since almost every major electronic unit designed in the past decade has implemented the CAN bus.
