Rugged SOSA-aligned 6U VPX Embedded Computing Module Introduced by Curtiss-Wright
The CHAMP-XD4 features dual Intel Xeon D-2700 processors, and is for demanding intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissonce (ISR) system architectures.
Delivering High-Voltage Power to Ground Vehicle Systems
The ability to provide high-voltage power on ground vehicle platforms is a rapidly growing requirement as high peak power is often needed to accelerate a high-inertia load.
Currently, there are two options for VITA 46.30 connectors: the TE Connectivity RT3 and Amphenol R-VPX EVO2 connectors, both of which meet the ANSI/VITA 46.30 standard intended for 100G (4-lanes @ 25 Gbaud) systems, and potentially beyond.
It's nearly impossible to use power efficiently enough to eliminate waste heat altogether. Enhancing efficiency can help reduce waste heat -- but only to a degree.
Sensor Open Systems Architecture (SOSA), Unmanned Vehicles, and Trusted Computing
System integrators need to ensure that the sensor systems and the critical data they collect and store are protected from falling into the wrong hands.
