iX5-200

BRIDGING PARADIGMS


The iX5-200 builds a bridge between the traditional and NewSpace paradigms by connecting the reliability and robustness of an FPGA to the flexibility and ease-of-use of Unibap Solutions.

UNIVERSAL PAYLOAD INTERFACE


The iX5-200 cannot only sample and analyse data with tremendous speed and timing but offers precise control over most sensor subsystems. Hence, it is the perfect interface to the most demanding payloads.

INTEGRATION READY


The iX5-200 comes with a custom- made enclosure for thermal and radiation management making it primed for immediate testing and integration.

Unibap’s iX5-200 combine the best of two domains of design disciplines. Unibap's performance computing (CPU + GPU) with a large FPGA for user applications, where the payload integrators can use their HDL implementations heritage with the performance computing.
