Processor Cards

Processor cards are the workhorses of modern electronic systems and are specifically designed to support the long lifecycle of military programs. With a focus on minimizing program cost, development schedule, and integration risk, Curtiss-Wright’s wide selection of processor cards are designed to meet unique, rugged environmental and performance requirements with full operational performance.

These cards offer high-reliability and safe operation and come with security features to protect against vulnerabilities and attacks. Curtiss-Wright COTS processor cards include Intel, NXP Power Architecture, and Arm CPU architectures and are available in industry-standard 3U VPX, 6U VPX, and VME form factors. Supporting many popular pinouts, including SOSA and OpenVPX standards, many products are available with backward pin compatibility to simplify technology refreshes.

3U VPX Processor Cards

Choose the ideal 3U OpenVPX SBC or DSP card, for your system's performance, safety, security, and SWaP requirements.
