Description
The increasing complexity of space missions demands sophisticated hardware solutions, with Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) serving as a cornerstone. However, the intricate nature of FPGA development necessitates structured engineering approaches to guarantee reliability and performance in the harsh space environment. Systems engineering principles are paramount for:
- Managing complex FPGA designs and requirements through the use of comprehensive requirements models.
- Optimizing the allocation of functionality on space-grade FPGAs by employing effective allocation techniques.
- Analysing functional correctness and radiation impact by integrating robust validation and verification processes.
- Achieving rapid deployment and reduced development time through efficient RTL code generation.
As FPGAs become indispensable components of space systems, systems engineering becomes a more critical factor in the success of missions. This presentation will explore the key systems engineering principles that should be considered to design and implement radiation-hardened FPGA solutions, fostering a synergistic approach between FPGA technology and systems engineering for successful space applications.
