APSoC: Reconfigurable SoC-based OBC for Future Telecom Applications

SITAEL, in collaboration with esc Aerospace, is developing an On-board Computer (OBC) in the framework of the ARTES Advanced Technology (AT) program. The unit is designed to be modular, by adhering to the SAVOIR generic OBC specifications and the cPCI Serial Space standard, and reconfigurable for future telecom (TLC) applications, being based on a large COTS reprogrammable SoC (System-on-a-Chip) FPGA.
