Aeroflex Colorado Springs in Colorado Springs, Colo., is offering the UT200SpW02 SpaceWire Protocol Handler and UT200SpWPHY01 SpaceWire Physical Layer Transceiver products. SpaceWire is a standard governing serial communication between satellite components. The protocol is self-managing and provides a high-speed, low-power serial interface while offering a simple user interface. The standard supports data rates of 2 megabits per second to 400 megabits per second over 10 meters of cable. Originally developed by the European Space Community (document ECSS-E-50-12A), SpaceWire marries IEEE-1355 with an LVDS physical layer. The UT200SpWPHY01 supports data rates up to 200 megabits per second. The UT200SpWPHY01 has a 3.3-volt power supply and cold spare on all pins. The UT200SpW02 SpaceWire Protocol Handler will be available as a Standard Microcircuit Drawing (SMD) number, QML Q and V qualified. Prototypes are available 4Q05 with production units by this spring.
