- Investigated but not interested
Current Selections/Considerations
- Must meet RM46 specs at a minimum
- Operating Frequency, Flash Storage, RAM, ROM, other peripherals...
- Must ensure that EMIF or FMC (external memory interface) exists
- Must ensure required peripherals given by subsytems are available
- Must ensure microcontroller is in stock
- Preferrable a trusted distributor but we can go with a sus company
- Must ensure microntroller exists in QFP (non-BGA package)
- Ensure devboards for microcontrollers exist
- Ensure microcontroller meets power requirements (TBD)
- Either way, try to keep power consumption to a low
- It’d be nice to have space heritage and/or good radiation tolerance
