Designed for advanced nano-satellite constellations in LEO and deep space exploration missions the readily available Sirius OBC with LEON3FT delivers ‘always-on’ reliable operations that work every time on time with precision performance. With enhanced error detection and correction, the Sirius OBC is tolerant to Single-Event-Effects (SEE) in logic and data storage. Fault tolerance is secured through TMR (Triple-Modular Redundancy) on all FPGA flip-flops and through boot flash and EDAC (error detection and correction) on memories. The development kit is powered through a mains 12V adaptor, eliminating the need for specialised power supplies or other laboratory equipment.

Sirius spacecraft avionics are modular in design. Modules can be combined to offer redundant configurations, or to simply accommodate mission specific requirements. The Sirius TCM LEON3FT has a standard single string system that consists of an on-board computer (Sirius OBC) and a combined mass memory with CCSDS stack (Sirius TCM). The OBC runs mission specific software and manage the spacecraft system. The TCM receives and stores payload data and platform housekeeping data while at the same time distributing telecommands and serving mass memory data to the transceiver.

SIRIUS TCM LEON3FT - Command & Data Handling

Flight proven across multiple mission applications for a range of customer requirements, this readily available solution has a reputation for reliability and performance for advanced small and nano-satellite missions. The Sirius TCM LEON3FT has inherited advanced error detection and correction in it’s design. The real-time operating system runs on a LEON3FT fault-tolerant soft processor, compliant to IEEE 1754 SPARC v8, and fault tolerance is secured by using triple-modular redundancy on FPGA and memory scrubbing.

EPIC SPACECRAFT - 1U

Our experience in the delivery of CubeSat missions for a wide range of applications means that our EPIC platforms have the versatility to meet the requirements of the vast majority of payloads.

The EPIC 1U CubeSat range proves that even the smallest satellites can deliver impressive performance. For most satellite payloads, trying to squeeze into a 1U is like trying to fit an elephant in the Apollo lunar module, but for many applications the limited volume is ideal. Selecting the EPIC 1U range for your mission means that you benefit from our flight proven avionics and enjoy the cost savings of a 1U launch. Small in size but massive in value, the AAC Clyde Space EPIC 1U offers the same quality design and build, flight proven performance, unrivalled operational up-time and excellent customer service as all our spacecraft products.
