Embedded HPC

The same Aurora computing technology used for datacenters and installations in controlled environments can now be deployed in mobile and harsh environments.

Through an accurate system redesign and test, the performance levels guaranteed by Aurora processing nodes can be utilized in diverse environments.

The adoption of Xeon5600 processors, of an FPGA-based reconfigurable computing section, a choice of high and low speed networks and interconnects make it a versatile and powerful computer to be used in mobile and remote equipment. The processing units are contained in a rugged enclosure with sealed connectors, capable to withstand MIL-STD-810F stress levels.

Unmanned, remote installations, ground, sea, vehicle installations are all possible. The availability of the Aurora platform in various conditions permits to reach computational levels for innovative applications in signal processing and sensor data compression, all performed on site or off a main computing infrastructure which AURORA machines can be easily and efficiently connected via a choice of high or low speed networks.

3/4 ATR Aviation Processor with Removable Mass Storage
General DescriptionFeaturesSpecificationsAccessories
This rugged, multi-use avionics processor combines Pentium® III performance with removable mass storage media. Sized to 3/4 ATR dimensions with standard j-hooks and bushings for dagger pin installation into an ARINC404A aircraft tray, the system incorporates a hardened aluminum chassis with a convenient front handle and EMI-shielded access door. All signals are brought out to a 150-pin ARINC 600 connector on the rear panel, which offers additional pins for future system expansion, such as for a MIL-STD-1553 multiplexed bus.

Based on modular PC/104 computer boards, the unit integrates a PC/104-Plus single board computer, dual-slot PCMCIA adapter, and a multi-port serial card. Other peripherals include PS/2, USB, Parallel, IDE, 10/100 Ethernet, SXGA flat panel display controller, and NTSC video input. A sturdy aluminum septum plate is positioned above the PC/104 cards to enhance the stiffness of the stack without having to put additional holes in the case for the standoffs.

Its design enables two PC Cards®, as well as two 2.5? IDE/ATA Flash disk cartridges to be easily inserted and removed via its hinged front-access panel. Removable mass storage cartridges incorporate internal shock & vibration isolation material to protect each hard drive and integrate a 48-pin Euro-DIN connector on one end to reliably ensure thousands of mate and un-mate cycles. Corresponding cartridge drive bays utilize Silastic Bumper Beans for further protection from shock/vibration common to aircraft environments.
