In the frame of the QlevEr Sat project, supported in sponsorship by Teledyne e2v, the CSUG (Grenoble University Space Centre) and MIAI (Multidisplinary Institute of Artificial Intelligence) have evaluated the performance of the QLS1046-Space processing module (Radiation Tolerant module with a Quad Arm® Cortex® A72 and 4GB DDR4 memory) for deep-learning AI applications. In this study, the pur…

Read MoreWhile making instantaneous decisions that are highly reliable and correct, space and avionic defense system developers must address the issue of overwhelming amounts of data transmissions, and computations. Defense system developments often utilize commercial technology. However, there are crucial differences between military and commercial systems, especially at the tactical edge. Military sy…
Read MoreThis article describes market disruptions currently faced by the space industry which may not only upend current commercial assumptions, but herald significant changes in the way that space-borne infrastructure is architected and operated in future. The hypothesis is that market forces and technology trends point to a necessary focus on substantially more flexible multi-mission platforms hereafter…
Read MoreAs part of the French Recovery Plan, Teledyne e2v Semiconductors and Safran Electronics & Defense have jointly obtained a French state aid to develop their System-in-Package roadmap Grenoble, 14th June 2021 – Teledyne e2v Semiconductors (Grenoble) and Safran Electronics & Defense (Valence), are currently launching the CO…
Read MoreAchieving deterministic latency is the topic of discussion in much contemporary systems design today. Past efforts focused on increasing data transmission speeds and bandwidths but increasingly, modern applications now set an equally high value on determinism - the requirement that a data packet be delivered at a precise and repeatable moment in time. This article considers determinism, at devic…
Read MoreFast, highly reliable, and radiation tolerant memories are a Must Have feature for complex Space Edge Computing systems : DDR4 will allow the Space industry to offer higher-throughput on-board processing and increased acquisition times enabling new Earth-Observation, space-science and telecommunication applications, e.g. ultra high-resolution imagery, live streaming video and on-board AI. I prev…
Read MoreGrenoble, 5 th May 2021 – On Tuesday May 4 th 2021, the first stone was laid to launch the upgrade work of the assembly and test clean room at the factory near Grenoble, France. This project is named “GECkO” which stands for “Growth Efficiency by Cleanroom Optimization”. …
Read MoreRF data conversion systems are experiencing rapid changes as ADC and DAC performance specifications and form factors, along with new sensor technologies (Rx & Tx), continue to advance. One system level design problem has been consistent throughout—balancing the implementation tradeoffs between the analog and digital circuitry for maximum software/system flexibility (from sensor to the digital…
Read MoreProcessors and their companion DDR memories are the heart of military, defense, and avionics computing systems. Today, state-of-the-art COTS processors are significantly outperforming existing mil/aero systems. Military and defense system developments can take 5-10 years design cycles, which naturally leads to a significant gap between the latest technologies available on the market versus chipse…
