Mercury Systems announces SOSA aligned development platform to simplify complex subsystem design
October 28 2021 - 4:15PM
Mercury Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: MRCY, www.mrcy.com), a leader in
trusted, secure mission-critical technologies for aerospace and
defense, today announced the Model 8257A Development Platform
aligned to the Sensor Open Systems Architecture™ Technical
Standard. Featuring a single-slot 3U VPX backplane and integrated
power supply, the 8257A enables engineers to accelerate development
of their sensor processing applications in an easy-to-use SOSA
aligned desktop environment, saving time and money.
“Our new Model 8257A eases the adoption of SOSA aligned
solutions by providing an integrated development platform using
only a single card to accelerate initial development efforts,” said
Ken Hermanny, senior director and general manager, Mercury
Microwave and Mixed Signal Assemblies. “The optional rear
transition module provides access to all the analog and digital
signals on Mercury’s Quartz line of RF system-on-chip (RFSoC)
modules without the need for additional plug-in cards or an
Ethernet switch card to minimize system complexity and cost during
development. Prototyping in this environment helps determine system
requirements and supports creation of IP and software that can
ultimately be used in the deployed SOSA aligned system. It’s
another example of our commitment to Innovation that Matters.”
The Model 8257A Development Platform accepts 3U VPX conduction
cooled boards and uses integral fans for air cooling, enabling
development on a fully rugged and conduction cooled board in a
desktop or benchtop environment. It is specifically designed to
accommodate Mercury’s Quartz® Model 5550 or 5553, eight-channel A/D
and D/A converter 3U OpenVPX modules based on the Xilinx® Zynq®
UltraScale+ RF system-on-chip (RFSoC), both aligned with the
recently released Technical Standard for SOSA Reference
Architecture 1.0. Developers can connect a notebook or desktop PC
running Xilinx’s Vivado Design Suite and Mercury’s Navigator Design
Suite to quickly develop, run and debug their applications.
Mercury envisions, creates, and delivers innovative technology
solutions purpose-built to meet their customers’ most pressing
high-tech needs. Visit the Model 8257A Development Platform product
