Abstract :
A highly integrated system-on-chip is currently in development. Based on the flight-proven RAD6000TM microprocessor, this mixed-signal microcontroller supports a wide variety of standard digital interfaces commonly used in spacecraft avionics. Multiple analog input and output channels are also provided.
