Overview

STAR-Tiger is a high-performance SpaceFibre routing switch, part of the European Union Hi-SIDE project, and winner of the Innovation in Space Award from the European Space Forum. The power supply board in the STAR-Tiger unit provides the primary power rails to the Xilinx KU060 FPGA being used to implement the routing switch. The STAR-Tiger power supply board uses radiation hard power supply devices from Texas Instruments, to demonstrate a robust power supply for high-performance computing and networking in spacecraft.
