Radar Interface Design Project
UNIVERSITY OF CENTRAL FLORIDA EECS SENIOR DESIGN PROJECT
UCF Team : Catherine Donoso, Diego Rocha, and Keith Weston
Sponsor: Scott Faulkner, Lockheed Martin
The project is for the Joint Air to Ground Missile (JAGM) program. JAGM needs a next generation power supply for the transceiver of this missile. The circuit board must convert the power source voltage and convert it to multiple voltages for the transceiver. The circuit board must also have a timing control unit that will do power up sequence and power down sequence, as well as monitoring the temperature. Timing signals are expected to be highly accurate and reliable. One of the main challenges of this particular project is the limited circuit board space and limited airflow in the system. This is a particular challenge because there must be low heat dissipation from the board. Low heat parts and proper package will have to be considered. Electromagnetic interference (EMI) must be kept to a minimum to insure optimal performance of missile guidance and tracking systems. The power supply needs to be clean, contiguous, and responsive.
