BittWare, a Molex company, has launched an early access program to accelerate the development and integration of embedded systems using the company’s new 3U VPX cards in aerospace and defense systems. These cards are powered by AMD’s next-generation Ryzen embedded processors, Versal RF Series, and Versal adaptive SoCs.

The BittWare 3U VPX cards will be introduced later this year, targeting size, weight and power (SWaP) requirements for mission-critical aerospace and defense applications, including avionics, radar, and signal processing.
Leveraging next-generation AMD Ryzen embedded processors, Versal RF Series devices, and Versal Series Gen 2 adaptive SoCs, these 3U VPX cards are designed to improve performance in data acquisition and multi-sensor processing. This makes them suited for multi-channel, real-time data processing for radar, sensor fusion, electronic warfare, signals intelligence, unmanned aerial vehicles, and image processing.
This latest announcement extends the company’s legacy of developing high-performance COTS products with the 3U VPX cards, including both Sensor Open Systems Architecture (SOSA) and VITA 48, which defines the mechanical requirements for building and cooling ruggedized electronic modules for embedded systems, BittWare said.
The early access program will provide select customers with technical information under NDA from BittWare and AMD. Users of VPX solutions can apply for early access to BittWare’s new 3U VPX cards in advance of general availability to receive exclusive technical product details and roadmap information. They also will have access to experts to discuss their next-generation product designs.
Molex also introduced the AirBorn 3U VPX power supply for space-constrained aerospace, defense, and commercial applications. This new SOSA-compliant 3U power system is designed to deliver continuous operation in harsh conditions. Applications include low Earth orbit satellites, military ground vehicles, unmanned aerial vehicles, industrial automation, robotics, and AI-driven distributed systems.
AirBorn, a Molex company, and BittWare are exhibiting at the MOSA Industry & Government Summit & Expo at National Harbor, MD, August 27-29th, in Booths 609 and 611, respectively.
