The risk of failure for avionics equipment on-board spacecraft due to radiation exposure is a critical issue for launchers, re-entry vehicles, space habitats and satellites

Introducing the Smart Backplane subsystem (KAM/CSB/12U), a rugged multi-slot chassis designed specifically for data acquisition, data processing, and recording in radiation-intensive space environments.

Smart Backplane is the Space Industry’s first rugged COTS-based chassis qualified for reliable data acquisition in space radiation environments.

New KAD/ADC/128 Microgravity Accelerometer Module delivers the performance of costly custom solutions at a fraction of the price.

Curtiss-Wright will provide its Smart Backplane radiation tolerant COTS electronics data acquisition technology.

Rocket Lab selected Curtiss-Wright's rugged, modular Space COTS Acra KAM-500 Data Acquisition Unit for the Electron Launch Vehicle. Read more here!
