REACT Processor Card
REACT is a high-performance processor card targeted for Low Earth Orbit (LEO) applications. It is fully space qualified with flight heritage on multiple missions.
The on-board PowerPC MPC8548 provides over 3000MIPS of processing power. It also offers double-precision floating point with vectorization, a capability that makes this device a high-performance processing solution for a wide range of scientific applications. A Virtex FPGA can be user programmed for increased data processing capability and easy interfacing to external devices.
REACT runs a ruggedized Linux 2.6 Operating System and comes with a complete SDK. This configuration is ideal for rapid prototyping on a desktop environment and ideal for migration to the flight platform.
