Xilinx expands space FPGA range
Xilinx has significantly expanded its range of FPGA devices qualified for use in space.
Following the popularity of the XQRKU060 launched last year, the XQR Versal space-grade portfolio includes the new Versal AI Core and Versal AI Edge series devices. These are packaged in ruggedized, organic ball grid array packaging with extended qualification and burn-in supporting Mil-Std-883 Class B-grade flow and full radiation tolerance.
These XQR devices are targeted for on-board data processing and machine learning (ML) inference in satellite and space 2.0 applications.
The XQR Versal ACAP is a highly capable and adaptable device with 3D packaging of chiplets on top of an FPGA fabric with support for full reconfiguration while in orbit. The space-grade XQR Versal AI Core device is targeted for availability in late Q2 2022.
