The webinar begins at 2:00 pm EST.

In this insightful webinar, experts Dominic Perez, CTO at Curtiss-Wright Defense Solutions and Aaron Frank, Senior Product Manager delve into the critical considerations for selecting CPUs, GPUs and FPGAs for rugged field applications and vehicle platforms with Size, Weight, and Power (SWaP) constraints. With a focus on optimizing power efficiency without compromising performance, they will guide attendees through the latest advancements in processor technologies.

The webinar will cover key topics such as understanding performance metrics, balancing processing needs with energy constraints, and the role of thermal management in field-deployed devices. Attendees will also learn about the trade-offs between integrated and discrete GPUs as well as FPGA based designs in power-limited environments. Through real-world examples and case studies, Perez and Frank will demonstrate how to make informed decisions that align with specific field application requirements.

Join us for an engaging discussion that promises to elevate your approach to selecting hardware for field applications.

FPGA Cards

Curtiss-Wright addresses the demands for increased data and signal processing performance, along with flexible interfaces for handling sensor I/O, through our full line of FPGA and Adaptive SoC processor cards. Our rugged FPGA cards supporting AMD FPGA and Adaptive SoC devices are designed to perform reliably in the harshest military environments. Available in 3U, 6U and XMC form factors, these proven modules offer flexible interfaces for handling sensor I/O and support the long lifecycle of defense and aerospace programs by offering backward pin compatibility to enable easier migration from generation to generation.
