Description
The NG-Ultra, commercialized by Nanoxplore, was developed thanks to European joined efforts to offer to Space community for the next decade a System-on-Chip component sized with the necessary processing power, trusted with radiation hardened by design technology, supported by well-supported ecosystem and offering European non-dependence.
Indeed, the Rad-Hard European NG-Ultra implements a quad-core ARM R52, a highly robust DDR controller, High Speed Serial Links, a modern SoC interconnection system and a performant rad-hard FPGA matrix for flexibility and possible in-flight re-programmability. This presentation will allow to explain the reasons why such a product is able to address a range of Use Cases for future Space applications, with a focus on its architecture, key features and processing performances. A status of the ecosystem will be exposed, for both hardware and software development. And finally, perspectives will be shown with a description of a NG Ultra-based processing board under development for a future platform On-Board Computer.
