Radar and sonar applications find a home in CompactPCI and VPX
How to decide which form factor to use for a radar or sonar application? Consider the application’s topology: Interconnect topologies that comprise many high-speed connections are well suited to VPX, while applications with more “well-behaved” communications are usually a good candidate for less complex technologies like CompactPCI.

Pushing the envelope: VPX SBCs fly on the cusp of military bandwidth and power/performance needs
VPX has a bright future in the defense arena, considered by many as next-generation VME. Mil/aero designers now have the flexibility to evaluate both when looking at their design requirements, assessing the legacy environment and considering rugged application demands and the types of data being processed now and moving forward. Key considerations include power-efficient performance and bandwidth.
