Integral Missle Seeker Signal Processor Desigh, Development and Implementation

We will be developing a 4-node integral missile seeker signal processor in colloboration with Northrop-Grumman, based on their proven AMPS (Adaptive Multi-Processor System) technology, which is scalable to 32+ nodes. We then will package the design in a Multi-Chip Module form factor. Note that the AMPS architecture permits use of any COTS processor, though the current engineering development model uses the 68002 processor. We intend to replace it with a TI C6X or C7X DSP processor to give us over 4 MFLOPS of computational power in under 4 cu. in. BENEFITS: This technology can be used in a variety of mission critical applications, including next generation avionics/electronic systems. Military programs that will directly benefit from this technology inlcude AEGIS, JSTARS, E2C, etc.
