Overview
The AMD Versal AI Core XQRVC1902 is the space-grade variant of AMD’s Versal AI Core adaptive SoC family, now offered in an enhanced space-grade organic lidless package. It targets MIL-PRF-38535 Class Y qualification — the highest quality and reliability level in the standard for spaceflight components — and is designed to support missions lasting up to 15 years, including GEO, cislunar and deep-space applications.
Built for onboard processing payloads, the XQRVC1902 delivers dramatic generational increases in compute density for vector-based algorithms, system logic cells, on-board SRAM and multi-gigabit transceivers compared with earlier space devices. The package is pin-compatible with existing Versal AI Core VC1902 devices in the 2197-ball grid array, easing migration, and combines an organic lidless design with space-grade chip capacitors that carry flight heritage.
Key Benefits
Data-center-class compute in orbit: the XQRVC1902 moves AI inference and high-throughput signal processing onboard the spacecraft, cutting downlink pressure and enabling autonomous decision-making. Class Y qualification intent, 15-year mission support and pin compatibility with commercial VC1902 devices simplify long-term space programs.
Applications
Satellite and space onboard AI inference, payload signal processing, geosynchronous and deep-space missions, Earth-observation analytics, and rad-tolerant adaptive computing for aerospace and defense.
