Curtiss-Wright will demo its groundbreaking VPX3-E320 Ruggedized Universal Software Defined Radio (SDR) card at NI Connect 2022, May 24-25 at the Austin Convention Center, Austin, Texas.

Designed with Intel® Xeon® D processor architecture, Curtiss-Wright's CHAMP-XD1 processor card is ideally suited for compute-intensive aerospace and defense applications, meeting the high performance, reliability, and security standards these industries require.

Maintaining dominance of the electromagnetic spectrum has never been more critical to mission success. The challenge facing system designers is how to accelerate the transition of new communications and electronic warfare (EW) capabilities from concept to the laboratory and then expedite the deployment of those new capabilities to the warfighter.

Optimized for performance, speed, security, and SWaP, Curtiss-Wright CHAMP-XD1 processor cards leverage Intel® Xeon® D processor architecture to meet the high demands of modern defense missions.

New V3-717 3U OpenVPX graphics processor module supports DO-254 DAL A and FACE-aligned software drivers with well-sourced, long proven AMD Radeon E8860 GPU.

New VPX3-E320 module is industry’s first fully rugged MOSA-based 3U OpenVPX variant of NI’s popular Ettus Research USRP E320 SDR.

Modular open system approach OpenVPX processing modules to be used in Next Generation Special Mission Processor (NextGen SMP) program for AC/MC-130J aircraft.

The Sensor Open Systems Architecture (SOSA) seeks to ensure rapid upgrades and technology insertion, no vendor lock, and accommodation of existing standards.
