Exposure to Space Environment

Specification • This section is a system level consideration and is included for information purposes only. The view to space shall be considered for both thermal and radiation effects. Thermal-related issue: heat-dissipation Radiation-related: TID (lifetime), SEE, shielding and impact on mass

Extended Capabilities

Profile • CH Node Extended Capabilities Customization and extension of CH node capabilities can be realized through instantiations of the Expansion Profile. In instances where custom electronics are needed (for example, spacecraft interfaces or attachments to expansion memory), mezzanines or custom backplane routing to other boards connect electronics to the CH node...

Extended Capabilities

Profile • RP Node Extended Capabilities The flexibility provided by FPGAs allows nodes built upon the RP profile to accommodate custom connectivity to other components, devices, or even other nodes. Customization and extension of RP node capabilities can be realized through instantiations of the Expansion Profile. In instances where custom electronics are...

External Interfaces

Profile • Depending on the nature of the expansion module and its integrated components, electronics modules built to the Expansion Profile will have varying needs with regard to communications interfaces. The Communication Specification is the authoritative document when the expansion module requires network connectivity. Discrete signals may be brought directly in to...

Factors of Safety

Specification • The JAS mechanical structure shall have strength margins of safety greater than zero when calculated from analytically derived structural loads. The factors of safety (FS), shown in the first table below, and test load factors, shown in the second table below, shall be applied to the limit loads. All laminated...

Fatigue

Specification • The JAS mechanical structure metallic elements shall be designed to withstand the effects of cyclic load condition caused by the design environment. The design environment includes all ground handling transportation, testing, launch and on orbit operational environments indicated in the Environmental Specification. MSFC-HDBK-505 Chapter 7 shall be implemented for fatigue...

Form Factor

Specification • While no specific form factor standard is specified in JAS it is highly recommended that programs make use of a standards-based mechanical design such as VPX defined by VITA. Although VPX is preferred, other standards may be considered for use as well. The consideration of alternate standards should carefully consider...

Fully Connected

Other • Fully connected networks are constructed by wiring every node to every other node present in the network (see Figure). For obvious reasons, these networks are the ideal topology when considering overall speed, diameter, routing complexities, reliability, and ease of construction. However, they require a massive number of links; hence, cost...

Functional Description

Profile • The CH profile defines the technologies that comprise the CH node, including both required and recommended components to define this standard node type. A CH node should be universally designed to minimize the number of unique instantiations of this profile. A block diagram of a CH node is shown below....
