Optimized for customer and mission success, Mercury's solutions power a wide variety of critical defense and intelligence programs. Mercury High Density Secure Memory www.mrcy.com To address the broad range of perils faced by the modern war fighter, defense electronics are growing increasingly sophisticated with additional sensor subsystems detecting, analyzing, and responding to potentially threatening scenarios. To do so, each of these subsystems requires data acquisition, digitization, processing, and storage modules. These highly complex subsystems together yield a massive volume of data to be processed in short periods of time. From a system-level architecture perspective, designers face a dilemma where they must integrate additional components and circuitry into a fixed allocation of board space. Missions requiring smaller and lighter weight form factors push the designer to the challenging goal of adding even more functionality while reducing overall system size and weight. In summary, many mission objectives can only be achieved with increasingly feature-rich electronic systems more tightly packed into the smallest of physical footprints. Mercury Systems applies its research and development expertise towards the commercialization of innovative technologies addressing the most challenging industry problems, such as the scenario described above. This technical brief examines Mercury's portfolio of High Density Secure Memory products, a unique offering delivering high-speed, military-hardened memory solutions in the smallest of form factors. The successful commercialization of our packaging technology has provided system level designers with additional board real estate without sacrificing memory performance requirements. Although ideally suited for defense electronics, our miniaturization technology has also been adopted for commercial avionics and industrial applications. A typical system configuration includes at least one processor and/ or field-programmed gate array (FPGA) with double data rate (DDR) memories, as depicted in the image below.
