Duration:60 minutes

Abstract:

Designers of commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) electronics systems take the best of commercial technology such as processors and FPGAs and enable them to work in extreme military environments. This transformation often means ruggedization to protect the state-of-the art integrated circuit and RF components and thermal-management solutions to mitigate the extreme heat modern processors generate while operating. Thanks to increased intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) demands on performance and reduced size, weight, and power (SWaP) requirements for designs, ruggedization has become a complex challenge. In this webcast, industry experts detail the challenges involved in ruggedizing COTS systems for military applications and the methods designers can use to overcome them.
