Abstract
We present the implementation of a fault-tolerant MP-SoC for very small satellites ($W$ of total power consumption, which for the first time enables true fault-tolerance for very small spacecraft such as CubeSats. For critical space missions aboard heavier satellites, we implemented an MPSoC-variant for the space-grade XQRKU060 part together with the Xilinx Radiation Testing Consortium. The MPSoC was developed for a 4-year ESA project. It can satisfy the high performance requirements of future scientific and commercial space missions at low cost while offering the strong fault-coverage necessary for platform control for missions with a long duration.
