Introduction

The Radiation-Tolerant 18x SpaceWire Router device is ideally suited for space and other high-rel applications, providing a high-throughput wormhole router functionality.

Specification

• CQFP256
• Total Ionizing Dose (TID) up to 300 krad (Si, functional)
• Single-Event Latch-Up Immunity (SEL) to LETth > 118 MeV*cm² mg
• MTBE for SEU related errors for GEO orbit: ~196 years
• 1.8 V and 3.3 V supply
• 3 W consumption (typical)
• Up to 200 Mbps on all SpaceWire links

Applications
The router implements a routing switch as defined in the ECSS-E-ST-50-12C SpaceWire links, nodes, routers and networks standard, supporting all mandatory and optional features.
The router implements eighteen external routing ports, an internal configuration port, and an internal port for system level test support.
The configuration port provides access to configuration and status registers, and the routing table, using the Remote Memory Access Protocol (RMAP) as defined in the ECSS-E-ST-50-52C protocol standard.
The router also fully supports the ECSS-E-ST-50-51C SpaceWire protocol identification standard.
