SCFE6933 6U SpaceVPX Processing Board

In-Orbit Processing

6U SpaceVPX processing board with AMD® Versal®

The SCFE6933 is a rad-tolerant COTS processing board that employs an AMD Versal™ AI Core series adaptive SoC to collect and process more sensor data on orbit faster. AI engines provide up to 5X higher compute density for vector-based algorithms and are optimized for real-time DSP and AI/ML computation to deliver deterministic for performance beamforming, radar processing, communications and radio applications.
