Peak Performance

Technical Specifications

Processing Unit

ARM Cortex-A5

Ultra-low power with deterministic control loops, tuned for 1U-3U buses.

Memory Architecture

128 MB RAM + FRAM

Mission-critical parameters persist in radiation-tolerant FRAM while applications run in protected RAM.

Fault Tolerance

Dual Cold-Redundant

Two independent compute planes with watchdog-managed failover and health telemetry.

Standard Interfaces

PC/104 Compliant

Built-in FD-CAN, SPI, I2C, UART, RS-422/485, USB Host, and Ethernet make integration painless.

Linux Ecosystem & Flight Software

The CyBER OBC runs RACCOON OS: open-source, space-optimized Linux distribution tailored for critical missions, and supports custom kernels like Linux4SAM when bespoke security policies are required.

Linux unlocks a rich driver and tooling ecosystem while our in-house security stack keeps every message authenticated, ensuring the entire flight stack stays manageable for operators.

  • Hardened kernel with OTA updates
  • Zenoh / DDS distributed messaging
  • Native YAMCS ground segment integration
  • Rust-based high-assurance services

Satellite Cybersecurity

The CyBER OBC unifies redundant hardware, open architectures, and a deterministic feature set to keep your mission data safe without sacrificing the flexibility of Linux. It scales from engineering benches to orbital flight models while staying predictable for operators.

Transparent Security

Hardware root-of-trust keeps every boot signed, and watchdog-managed dual cold redundancy observes telemetry before stepping in.

  • • Signed images verified at boot (cryptographic stack).
  • • Rust-based assurance layers for drivers and telemetry.
  • • Dual-plane failover with health reporting.

Flexible Linux Stack

Leverage a mature ecosystem of drivers and middleware to accelerate development while our high-assurance layers manage mission safety.

  • • Zenoh / DDS distributed messaging for modern payloads.
  • YAMCS ground segment integration out of the box.
  • • Linux4SAM-ready drivers and kernel layers.

RACCOON OS Security Stack

We run RACCOON OS: open-source, space-hardened Linux distribution engineered for long-term mission stability. By making the platform transparent, we enable rigorous auditing and rapid security patching.
