ARINC
Sarsen Technology offers a range of ARINC interface cards based on a number of standard form factors, including PCI, PCI Express, PMC / XMC, cPCI/PXI, PC104-Plus and more.
This web site can only detail a representative sample of the complete range. For a detailed review of your application please contact one of the engineering team to discuss your requirements.
FPGA
Unlike application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs), which are typically designed and used for a specific system, FPGAs are completely reconfigurable, making them an ideal fit for many different markets.
Sarsen Technology supports a wide range of PCIe hardware based on both Xilinx and Intel FPGAs, and can also supply a full range of software development tools and software drivers to get your FPGA system to market on-time and on-budget.
Xilinx FPGA boards based on:
Xilinx Zynq SoC
Xilinx Zynq UltraScale MPSoC
Xilinx Zync UltraScale RFSoC
Xilinx UltraScale
Xilinx UltraScale+
Intel FPGA boards based on:
Intel Stratix V
Intel Stratix 10
Intel Arria V
Intel Arria 10
Graphics / GPGPU
XMC and VPX form factors are the most popular, and modules are available in rugged, extended temperature variants for use in hostile environments. Extended life cycles are supported and products are ITAR-free.
Solutions are available for miltary avionics, UAV surveillance, ISR (intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance), medical imaging and industrial inspection.
Switches & Routers
Network switches intelligently handle packets of data, determining where the packet needs to go and sending it to that computer only. Bandwidth isn't shared, making switches incredibly efficient. Network routers are different in that they connect multiple networks, bridging the gap and determining the best path for forwarding the packets. Routers also use protocols such as ICMP to communicate with each other and configure the best route between any two hosts.
Sarsen Technology supplies 10 Gigabit and Gigabit Ethernet embedded switch cards for superior networking and communications performance. These switches can support compliance with the VICTORY specification as an Infrastructure Switch and Router, as well as a wide variety of protocols. We also support a range of Network Interface Controller (NIC) modules and embedded Ethernet solutions for CarrierClass™ systems.
Specialist services routers from X-ES offer a comprehensive suite of Cisco IOS® software solutions with Cisco Mobile Ready Net capabilities to provide highly secure data, voice, and video communications to stationary and mobile network nodes across wired and wireless links.

System on Module
There are many benefits in using an SoM, including a wide choice of CPUs and that it can be integrated into many embedded computer applications. The design is centred on a microprocessor with RAM, input/output controllers and all other features needed to be a functional computer on a single board.
Sarsen Technology offers a wide range of SoMs based around ARM and PowerPC architectures, from entry level models right through to high end ruggedised boards. This web site can only detail a representative sample of the complete range. For a detailed review of your application please contact one of the engineering team to discuss your requirements.
Video Processing
From UAVs and military surveillance to medical imaging and industrial inspection the ability to capture, process and deliver continuous streams of video data depends entirely on the performance and reliability of the computer system used.
Sarsen Technology works with a number of manufacturers who offer a range of high performance and high reliability video and graphics processing solutions, including the Tyton VS2 H.265 video encoder module from EIZO Rugged Solutions.
Rugged Systems
We work with hand-selected manufacturers to provide our customers with high performance, SWaP-C, rugged COTS embedded systems created specifically to be deployed in challenging environments. The systems are all designed with data resilience, dependability and application integrity in mind.
Durable components such as special single board computer hold-down brackets, shock-mounted hard drive carriers, high capacity cooling fans, easily accessible system air filters, cooling fan speed control and locking cable inter-connects are used to provide the ruggedisation levels required for your project.
Supporting a wide range of form factors, including VPX, XMC/PMC, COM Express®, and cPCI, many of the rugged systems we supply have been designed to meet the rigorous standards of MIL-STD-810 and DO-160, while incorporating the latest power-saving and performance-enhancing technology.
Development Systems
Sarsen Technology supplies and supports a range of development systems for both FPGA and CPU-based boards, including PCIe and VPX integrated platforms. These systems provide completely standalone setups for developing embedded applications. Each system is tested and configured before shipping and various options for I/O boards, application-specific IP, single board computer, and hard drive are available, depending on the system.
Configured with COTS boards specific to your application and software backed by a highly-responsive team of support engineers, system development is straightforward.
Recording & Storage
The high speed recording and playback systems we supply help to overcome bottlenecks common to RAID and other traditional storage and recording environments. With sustained recording/playback rates up to 1.6GB/second, we provide solutions with off-the-shelf products as well as custom design for leading edge applications. These include standard COTS PCI, PCI Express and FPDP mezzanine boards as well as a comprehensive range of 19” Rackmount, CompactPCI and PXI system level solutions. These standard solutions can be customised for specific application requirements. Support for PCI Express (PCIe) allows quicker integration with your complex data gathering environments.

Expansion Modules
Storage Modules
The modules we supply are designed for embedded systems, offering highly-secure, rugged storage all within an industry-standard form factors. We can also provide modules with support for AES-256 XTS encryption and several military sanitisation protocols, including a fast clear, and solid-state SLC NAND flash technology.
We also support the latest in PXI Express storage capacity and slot flexibility. The DM series of storage modules from Conduant support standard rotating disks as well as mSATA and PCIe NVME M.2 SSDs in capacities ranging from one to eight terabytes.
Conduant provides a number of RAID and RAID-capable configurations, including the LTXe storage array. The LTXe and other Conduant RAID products offer exceptional performance and capacity for a wide variety of high performance data storage applications requiring a greater level of disk drive fault tolerance.
Single Board Computers
There are a huge number of supported processors, including the very latest from Intel®, AMD, Texas Instruments, NXP, ARM, Intel, Xilinx and Analog Devices. The processors are hosted on an extensive range of COTS form factors: ATCA, COM Express, CompactPCI, EBX, EPIC, PC/104-Plus, PCI Express, PICMG® 1.3, PMC, VME, VPX and XMC, and a number of non standard modules too.
This web site can only detail a representative sample of the complete range. For a detailed review of your application please contact one of the engineering team to discuss your requirements.
In total, we offer in excess of 300 individual SBC solutions and this web site can only detail a representative sample of the complete range. In addition, many of the single board computer solutions we support can be customised to meet your application requirements.
MIL-STD-1553
Sarsen Technology supplies and supports an extensive line of MIL-STD-1553 hardware, including multi-channel interface cards for most computer backplanes and real-time Ethernet converters. We also offer software development kits and APIs which allows users to quickly and reliably integrate a MIL-STD-1553 network to their application. Most of the cards/devices have signal capture and signal generation capability, and can both execute and pass the SAE-AS4111 5.2 protocol tests. All cards/devices are available with Dual Function (BC/BM or mRT/BM) for Full Function (BC/mRT/BM) configurations.
