POMELOS Platform
Platform to measure and prototype space applications
University of Brest, Lab-STICC UMR CNRS 6285
Summary
1) POMELOS
description
The POMELOS platform is composed of two sets of
equipment. The first set includes hardened used space hardware and software
based on Leon processors and SpaceWire communication
devices. These technologies are used to support critical software embedded on
current spacecraft. These are hardened materials. The second set of equipment
consists of FPGA (Field programmable Gate Array Architecture). This
configurable hardware should be used to evaluate specific hardware
architectures that can be embedded and used on future spacecraft such as
technologies expected in the New space.
The current POMELOS platform is composed of:
-
2 GR740 CPCI boards (quadcore Leon4FT SoC), running RTEMS or bare metal applications.
-
4 GR740 Mini boards with Certus-Pro NX FPGA
chips that can be configurated with the Lattice
Radiant software.
-
A Spacewire switch and a traffic generator.
-
Gaisler tools to compile and run programs on the platform.
The platform is intended for teaching and research
activities.
It is expected to be open to research/teaching partners.
Please contact platform maintainers for any question.
POMELOS is part of the
CPER SpaceTechDroneTech 2021/2027.
POMELOS is funded by
DRARI (Délégation régionale
académique à la recherche
et à l’innovation) and FEDER (Fonds
européen de développement regional).
