About
The S-A1760 Venus is Aitech’s smallest and most power-efficient space-rated GPGPU system, designed specifically for short-duration spaceflight, near-Earth orbit, and LEO satellite applications requiring compact high-performance compute. It integrates the NVIDIA Jetson TX2i module featuring Pascal GPU architecture with 256 CUDA cores delivering 1 TFLOPS of compute at 60 GFLOPS per watt efficiency.
The system packs 8 GB of LPDDR4 memory with ECC protection and 32 GB of SSD storage into a 129 mm square footprint weighing under 1 kg. The heterogeneous CPU cluster combines NVIDIA Denver 2 dual-core ARM and Cortex A57 quad-core ARM processors for flexible task distribution. Hardware H.264/H.265 encoding is included for video compression workloads.
Connectivity encompasses Gigabit Ethernet, UART serial, USB 2.0, discrete I/O signals, and CANbus for spacecraft bus integration. The S-A1760 Venus carries Series 300 radiation characterization and is actively used in distributed processing architectures for satellite imaging, autonomous navigation, and signal intelligence applications.
