ATCA, a competitive alternative to 6U VPX
Hardware-platform decisions have always been challenging in the aerospace and defense market, as applications in these markets typically require cutting-edge technology and a deployment life cycle that could extend for decades. Developing hardware from the ground up is costly and can lengthen development schedules; however, the advent of open standards such as VITA and PICMG means that many engineering teams have started using these standards to reduce development cost and time to market.
