3U VPX Processor Card with NXP Arm LX2160A
Available with DO-254 DAL A artifacts for safety certification
The VPX3-1708 single board computer delivers the next step in performance while maintaining a similar power envelope to previous NXP processor generations. Available in a safety-certifiable variant, the V3-1708, this COTS processor card is designed to reduce the time, cost, and risk associated with getting rugged, safety-critical systems to the field.
- High-performance, SWaP-optimized processing
- Enhanced Trusted Computing capabilities
- Built-in adherence to DO-254 and AMC 20-152A/AC 20-152A
- Failure detection coverage through FMEA and BIT software source kit
The VPX3-1708 and V3-1708 support a wide range of popular operating systems, including DDC-I Deos, Green Hills Software INTEGRITY-178 tuMP, Lynx Software Technologies LynxOS, and Wind River VxWorks HVP.
Take flight faster with the VPX3-1708 and V3-1708:
High-performance, SWaP-optimized processing
The VPX3/V3-1708’s LX2160A system on chip (SoC) processor provides an impressive amount of processing power and I/O complement in a low total power envelope. With the addition of wire-rate I/O processing (WRIOP) and other offload engines, the VPX3/V3-1708 provides more real-time processing in the cores for compute-intensive applications.
Enhanced Trusted Computing capabilities
For applications requiring information assurance, the VPX3/V3-1708’s hardware design supports NXP Secure Boot and trust capabilities, along with Arm TrustZone.
Built-in adherence to DO-254 and AMC 20-152A/AC 20-152A
The V3-1708 variant is designed for DAL A systems where AMC 20-152A/AC 20-152A is the means of compliance, calling up DO-254. It’s ideal for safety-critical systems, such as flight control computers, mission control computers, and primary flight displays. Complete your certifiable system with our V3-717 graphics processor.
Failure detection coverage through FMEA
A functional level Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA) is performed during design to derive additional hardware requirements for safety nets (BITE), identify module-level BIT software, identify system-level requirements, and provide a measure of failure mode detection coverage.
