It takes careful planning to deploy a system that
can deliver high performance throughout its lifetime.
Choosing technology is never easy, but it’s
particularly difficult for naval applications
because many navy systems remain in
service for decades. How can you deliver
high performance today, while still protect-
ing your investments against the effects of
obsolescence? Is there a way to preserve
your certifications, even through multiple
technology refreshes?
Fortunately, the answer is a resounding
“Yes.” Our careful design process often
allows us to change processor and memory
types without changing a board’s physical
or electrical characteristics. By maintaining
form, fit and function for multiple genera-
tions, you can minimize re-qualification
following an upgrade. Our Board Support
Packages provide a stable software inter-
face between the application and the
underlying hardware, also minimizing revi-
sions to application software.
Some naval applications require rugged
hardware, and our products are designed
to be rugged right from the start. We have
perfected the development of thermal and
mechanical technology coupled with test
and qualification techniques to bring the
best available COTS technology to the
rugged market.
Will your technology choices
still be seaworthy in 20 years?
