Description

Ragnarok's radiation-hardened (RH) reconfigurable Flight Computer (FC) for SmallSats sustains > 300 krads of TID and > 84 MeV-cm^2/mg SEE as a crucial part of the GN&C system that supports ADCS and C&DH using a Fault-Tolerant synthesizable processor. Using the latest 28nm technology, the RHFC consumes less power over SRAM-based FCs and operates faster than its predecessor. The radiation-hardened Flight Computer increases Space Resiliency (longer deployment of Space Assets in high-radiation "Contested Space") and enables Space Domain Awareness operations such as shadowing and surveillance of adversaries using SmallSat platforms in MEO/GEO.
