The Friday Round-Up from Sarsen Technology...

It’s nearing the end of the working week, and it’s been a busy one for Sarsen Technology. With visits to key customers and new products to get excited about, we are looking forward to a busy summer….. when it arrives!

Some of the new products we have been talking about this week -

Our friends at Tech Source have announced the Condor3000x-cc; a new conduction cooled and rugged version of the Condor 3000x XMC card. The Condor 3000x-cc is a leading edge XMC form factor graphics/video card, based on AMD’s E6760 GPU, for use in applications that require very high-end graphics and computation in a rugged format. 

  

The XCalibur1600 from Extreme Engineering Solutions, Inc. (X-ES) is a high-performance, 6U cPCI, single board computer supporting Freescale QorIQ P3, P4, and P5 processors. With eight Power Architecture e500mc cores running at up to 1.5 GHz, the P4080 delivers enhanced performance and efficiency for high-en military, communications and industrial embedded applications.

And in other news….

Sarsen Technology has decided to support Debbie Simpson in her bid to conquer the Marathon des Sables, to raise money for Facing Africa Noma, a great charity helping children overcome the legacy of the devastating disease noma.

European Defence & Aerospace Manufacturing Technology Roadshow 2009

Sarsen Technology is one of twenty companies participating in the 2009 European Defence & Aerospace Manufacturing Technology Roadshow. The roadshow takes place this year between 21st September - 16th October on a one month tour across the UK and Europe visiting many of the industry's major design, development and research facilities along the way. Included on the itinerary are visits to Selex Galileo in Luton, Goodrich Actuation Systems in Wolverhampton, Rolls-Royce in Derby, Lockheed-Martin in Ampthill, Goodrich Power Systems in Pitstone, Siemens Roke Manor in Romsey, BAE Systems in Farnborough and GE Aviation in Cheltenham.

On board the exhibition vehicle is a group of twenty suppliers demonstrating leading edge technologies for the defence and aerospace markets directly to customers on it's premises, meeting directly with many of the engineers and developers who don't always manage to get to more traditional trade shows.

We are currently in Derby meeting with Rolls-Royce and Sarsen Technology is discussing new Altera Stratix IV GX COTS hardware from BittWare, Oxygen Electronics component sourcing services, high-performance PICMG 1.3 computing solutions from Trenton Technology and rugged, embedded single board computing solutions from VersaLogic. There is a good mix of technology solutions on the roadshow and customers are keen to discuss new project opportunities. Tomorrow is Thursday so it must be Lockheed-Martin (INSYS) in Ampthill!
