SOSA Aligned Development Platform on Mercury Systems Model 8256b, which was successfully demonstrated at US Army Technical Exchange Meeting – FACE â„¢ and SOSA, proving true heterogeneous interoperability with SOSA Aligned products from several suppliers.

HUNTSVILLE, Alabama, September 14, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – Mercury Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: MRCY, www.mrcy.com), a leader in reliable and secure critical technologies for aerospace and defense, succeeds today demonstrated the Model 8256 Sensor Open Systems Architecture â„¢ (SOSA)-aligned development platform at the U.S. Army Technical Exchange Meeting – FACE â„¢ and SOSA, proving true heterogeneous interoperability with SOSA-aligned products from several suppliers. This Phase 2 platform features additional signal acquisition, time and frequency displays, and includes extensive system management capabilities.

“SOSA is all about interoperability, multi-vendor solutions, reuse, and affordable solutions for government without vendor lock-in,” said Paul Mesibov, vice president of engineering, Mercury Mixed Signal. “Showing a system in action and using products from multiple vendors, all aligned with SOSA, is proof that the SOSA initiative works. The Model 8256 further reinforces our commitment to developing open standards and delivering on our commitment to innovation that matters.

This Model 8256 development platform consists of an Elma Electronic 3U VPX chassis, Crossfield Technology IPMI software and ChassisBerry chassis manager, Interface Concept (ComEth4590a) backplane switch module, Single Board Computer (SBC) TR H4C Concurrent Technology and a Mercury Quartz® Model 5550, an eight-channel OpenVPX 3U A / D and D / A converter card based on the Xilinx® Zynq® UltraScale + RFSoC, all aligned to the standard SOSA technique.

The story continues

“Learning a new standard can take time to understand and implement correctly. It’s much easier to get started with a working system preconfigured to meet SOSA’s goals, ”said Ken Grob, Director of Embedded Computing, Elma Electronic Inc.“ The Model 8256 being demonstrated allows engineers to get started. immediately to work on their applications while minimizing the risks encountered when using new technologies and standards. We are very happy to be a part of the Model 8256 development platform.

“The Model 8256 development platform not only provides access to high performance hardware, but also with chassis management capabilities based on open standards,” said Terry Hulett, General Manager of Products, Crossfield Technology. LLC. “We are delighted to offer the system software. which provides common access and interfaces to system management functions so that all platform components are truly interoperable with each other.
