Launch vehicles rely on extremely reliable FPGAs for navigation, guidance, telemetry and safety systems. Lattice FPGAs are used as central sensor interfacing, control and management of real time data and offer low latency response to adjust engine thrust and ensure accurate trajectory and landing as they enble automation and health monitoring of fault tolerant fail-safe platforms.
- Immunity to single event latchup and high Total Ionizing Dose resilience in presence of heavy ions
- Novel configuration memory architecture significantly lowers multiple-bit upsets.
- Mitigation techniques including built-in error detection and correction , sophisticated Triple Modular Redundancy and fault tolerant design techniques
- Robust and predictable operation in extreme shock, thermal environments ensure reusability and durability for multiple launches.
Features
- Low power, high I/O FPGAs in ruggesdized packages simplify sensor, actuator, motor control connectivity and flight computer interfacing.
- Support for FPGA operations in harsh conditions including extreme temperature and high radiation environmnts with Lowest soft error rate (SER) in its class and highest latch-up immunity coupled
- with built-in scrubber to maximize integrity of launch systems.
- Commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) plastic components speed up prototype build and maintain same design for flight.
