This product has an End of Life Notice,
For new design programs, please consider the Parvus® DuraCOR® 8044 Intel® Xeon® W.
The Parvus DuraCOR 8043 rugged Commercial Off the Shelf (COTS) modular mission computer subsystem is based on a quad-core (8-thread), 6th gen “Skylake” Intel® Xeon® E3 v5 processor with PCI Express (PCIe) Mini Card slots and a PCIe/104 bus architecture to support platform-specific add-on I/O module rapid integration. Optimally designed for size, weight, and power (SWaP)-sensitive mobile, airborne, ground, manned/unmanned vehicle and sensor applications, the DuraCOR 8043 combines powerful graphics and multi-core processing with ultra-reliable modular, mechanical robustness in a fanless IP67 design (dust and waterproof) optimized with ECC memory support for demanding civil and military platforms. Featuring a powerful Intel Iris™ Pro Graphics GPU, the unit provides OpenGL support for graphics-intensive applications (potentially eliminating need for discrete graphics cards), along with a 72-core GT4e GPGPU with OpenCL support for data processingintensive applications. Extensive qualification testing per extreme MIL-STD-810, MIL-STD-461, MIL-STD-1275, MIL-STD-704 and RTCA/DO-160 conditions validate environmental, power and EMI compliance.
Delivering new capabilities for C4ISR, image processing and surveillance applications, the DuraCOR 8043 delivers high performance computing and graphics engines with numerous integrated I/O interfaces (2 x display outputs, 2 x GbE network interfaces, 2 x USB 3.0 interfaces, 4 x USB 2.0 ports, 5 x COM ports, audio, GPIO and eSATA) and flexible I/O expansion capabilities for additional mission-specific payloads. The base 8043 system supports two Mini-PCIe I/O slots with pre-routed pins going to external DTL-38999 connectors for optional avionics databus interfaces (MIL-STD-1553/ARINC 429) or other COM, DIO, analog, network or video modules (i.e. HD-SDI video capture, H.264 video encoder, NTSC/PAL frame grabber). One Mini-PCIe slot can alternatively support mSATA Flash storage, if two internal SSDs are required (a dedicated mSATA slot is also supported). Optional interlocking, add-on I/O expansion segments pre-fitted with MIL-DTL-38999 connectors support modified COTS (MCOTS) variants with application-specific PCIe/104 I/O cards. For high capacity (multi-Terabyte) or removable data storage, optional single/dual-slot 2.5” SATA SSD add-on segments with traditional or high-mating cycle SATA interfaces (rated up to 100,000 insertions) are available to meet demanding information assurance or mission requirements. Like other DuraCOR models, the 8043 can leverage a large ecosystem of rugged COTS Mini-PCIe and PCIe104 modules, together with Curtiss-Wright’s responsive, cost-competitive application engineering services to reduce program risk, cost and schedule impact for customer-tailored MCOTS variants.
The DuraCOR 8043 mission computer is completely sealed, requires no active cooling nor cold plate, and includes a military-grade power supply supporting aircraft (MIL-STD-704F, DO-160G) and ground vehicle (MIL-STD-1275D) voltages with capabilities for optional 50/200 ms power hold-up and N+1 failover redundancy.
