The capabilities of system integration technologies impact electronics platform complexity, software design methodology, application design, system integration, reuse, upgrades, obsolescence management and certification for time-, mission-, and safety-critical applications. The right system integration infrastructure with deterministic high-bandwidth Ethernet enables design of less complex software-centric systems at lower lifecycle cost. New Quality Of Service (QoS) enhancements and protocol standards such as TTEthernet (SAE AS6802), guarantee strictly deterministic computing and networking performance and satisfy requirements of backplane and backbone applications in aerospace, defense, automotive, energy production and industrial systems.

Texas Instruments offers a wide range of qualification options for industrial customers hose application must work in harsh environments. TI’s Enhanced Products are qualified over extended temperatures and come with an assurance that TI, not a third party, is manufacturing the product to datasheet specifications. Qualification and reliability reports are available online for every Enhanced Product. Additional packaging options can support higher temperatures with new mold compound materials and special materials sets optimized for extreme temperatures. Bare die and Known Good Die are also available for integrating multiple functions in applications with severe space limitations.

AS9100:2009 Revision C (AS9100C) is a specific international standard for the increasingly competitive aerospace industry. These standards were developed by the IAQG to produce a harmonized platform to ensure that all operations in the supply chain are adhering to best practices. This AS9100C white paper will focus on the following critical areas relevant to the standard: • Revision C & The New Changes: Review the background associated with the changes, as well as an outline of the most significant additions, deletions and revisions to the standard. • Informational Overview of AS9100: For organizations new to the standard, this section will outline what the standard entails and how it might affect your business. • Five Key Areas of Focus in the Aerospace Industry: these five areas are continually where the IAQG and OEMs focus.
