Renesas Rad Hard Power Management Reference Design for Xilinx's Space Grade XQRKU060
Jump to Page Section:
Overview
Description
Over the last decade satellites and spacecrafts have seen an exponential increase in the need for on-board data processing and storage demands. Additionally, major satellite manufacturers have recently announced their latest satellites to be modular, fully digital and capable of in-orbit reconfigurability. To meet these demands, satellite and payload manufacturers are using high-end FPGAs, ASICs, and processors. Xilinx’s Kintex XQRKU060 FPGA is a radiation hardened FPGA that has comparable performance to commercial counterparts in demanding computing applications. The Kintex XQRKU060 requires a complex power solution with multiple low voltage supply rails that can deliver high currents and a need for power supply sequencing to eliminate high inrush currents. In collaboration with Xilinx and Ibeos, Renesas offers a Kintex XQRKU060 development board with the FPGA powered by Renesas' Radiation Hardened products.
