Ensuring reliable radiation-hardened power solutions for versal FPGAs

The use of FPGAs (Field Programmable Gate Arrays) in satellites is common due to their ability to be programmed in real time and their immense data processing power which is vital for the increasing on board processing directly on the satellite. Today’s space grade FPGAs, such as AMD’s Adaptable Compute Acceleration Platform (ACAP), include machine learning and artificial intelligence capabilities, but come with stringent power constraints. These FPGAs are designed to operate with low voltages and high currents, leading to demanding power supply requirements. Failure to follow the strict power guidelines can result in unreliable power up and potential damage to the FPGA, causing the satellite to lose key data processing functionality. This poster highlights discrete space grade solutions to provide power for the Versal™ AI Core and Edge series rails while following their rigid requirements. Using modern radiation-hardened and radiation-tolerant integrated circuits, designers are able to meet the high current and tight tolerance requirements of the core rail along with all the additional power supplies while maintaining a high efficiency and compact solution size. These power solutions combined with the space grade Versal adaptive SoC provide satellites with the accuracy, reliability, and efficiency needed to carry out different missions.
