We talk IoT: The Tech Odyssey: Reshaping Space Missions with AMD and Avnet Silica - Episode 43

Published: Nov. 16, 2023, 8:02 a.m.

As we push the boundaries of what's possible in space, two pivotal challenges stand out: the hardware components that can withstand the extremities of space and the sophisticated processing power required to execute space missions.\nWith our guests, we will explore the transformation in satellite technology, the vital role of Commercial Off-the-shelf components, and the evolution in processing needs for ambitious space applications.\nJoining us from AMD Xilinx is Ken O\u2019Neill, Space Systems Architect. Representing Avnet Silica, we have Paul Leys, Market Segment Manager, Aerospace and Defence. Together, we'll journey to understand the New Space movement\u2019s intricacies, challenges, and future.\n#space2.0 #newspace #wetalkiot\n\xa0\nSummary of this week's episode:\n(02:13) Introductions\n(03:24) Why space is exciting right now\n(04:38) AMD\u2019s role in space\n(11:13) Shifting from geostationary to LEO satellites\n(18:32) How components handle the new requirements\n(25:50) Collaboration is key\n(28:50) The future ahead\n\xa0\nShow notes:\nAMD - Kenneth O\u2019Neill\nhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/ken-o-neill-48188a1/\nAvnet Silica - Paul Leys\nhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/paul-leys-247686b/\nhttps://www.avnet.com/wps/portal/silica/solutions/markets/aerospace-defence/new-space/\nhttps://www.avnet.com/wps/portal/silica/resources/article/addressing-the-processing-needs-of-space-applications/\nhttps://www.avnet.com/wps/portal/silica/resources/article/new-space-satellites-demand-new-approach/\nhttps://www.xilinx.com/applications/aerospace-and-defense/space.html\nAbout Avnet Silica:\nThis podcast is brought to you by Avnet Silica - The Engineers of Evolution: https://my.avnet.com/silica/resources/podcast/\nYou can connect with us on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/silica-an-avnet-company/.
