Unprecedented times in the aerospace and aviation industries are seeing many companies having to reduce their headcount or subcontract core capabilities in order to secure their business' survival. Areas such as R&D and testing, which are further away from revenue generation, are often the first to feel the impact. Callisto, part of the pan-


European Celestia Technologies Group, is offering a new, flexible approach to specialist test services on an outsourced basis, with a range of products and services driven by highly experienced, best- in-class engineers but provided at a variable cost. A key specialism is designing


and manufacturing cryogenic LNAs to improve Ground Station Noise Temperature (NT). Callisto's thermal vacuum cycling bench provides high precision and cost- effective cryogenic test services, using dry cryogenics with no liquid nitrogen or liquid helium. The system can cycle


automatically within the defined temperature range for a large number of cycles, usually performing between 10 and 200 cycles, though is not limited to these values. www.callisto-space.com/en


A


nalog Devices, Inc. (ADI) has introduced a full audio system


that features the SHARC Audio Module (SAM) for digital audio


core ADSP-SC589 audio processor SoC (with an integrated Arm Cortex-A5 core) and leverages ADI’s A2B audio bus technology. In addition to the main SHARC audio module board, ADI offers daughter boards to provide added functionality to the main board and expand the audio system. The Audio Project Fin board mates directly to the main board,


providing MIDI input/output as well as pushbuttons and potentiometers to modify audio effects. The A2B Amplifier Module features two high-efficiency Class-D amplifiers to output digital audio data received over the twisted-wire pair A2B bus from PDM microphones and/or serial TDM sources on the main board. This complete audio system


delivers high-fidelity multichannel digital audio with low and deterministic latency to a fully synchronised distributed audio system. www.analog.com


AETINA LAUNCH NEW NVIDIA JETSON-BASED PLATFORM AN810-XNX EDGE AI COMPUTER


Aetina Corporation has announced its new AN810-XNX edge AI computer. This device is built on the Jetson platform for robotics, drone, UAV, industrial inspection, medical imaging, and deep learning. The AN810-XNX combines the NVIDIA


Jetson Xavier NX and Aetina AN810 carrier board in a Nano-ITX form factor of 120x120x47.3mm (with fan). It supports full M.2 slot with M-key, E-key, and B-key and the interface with PCIe/SATA/USB 3.2 Gen2/USB 2.0. Advancing 5G technology in IoT


applications, the AN810-XNX is integrated


with a 4G/5G module for high-speed wireless connection and data transferring. The onboard SIM slot, offers seamless global connectivity for edge devices. It also supports the Innodisk InnoAGE out-of-band management SSD solution through M.2. For AI avision Philistines, it supports a single 120-pin connector for MIPI CSI-2 interface. It can handle


intensive AI workloads ultra-high-resolution cameras for more accurate image analysis. For backup support, Aetina offers BSP and DTB configuration updates for both standard and customised platforms. www.aetina.com
