Solid state data recorder (SSDR) for use with form-factor avionics systems

A single-board solid state data recorder (SSDR) card configured for use in a IU CubeSat payload form-factor multi-purpose architecture, comprising:

• a field programmable gate array (FPGA);
• a plurality of NAND (NOT-AND) storage banks of non-volatile NAND Flash storage, the plurality of NAND storage banks which store operational data, each of which is controlled by a NAND Flash controller which controls the signaling of the plurality of NAND storage banks and reading and writing to the plurality of NAND storage banks;
• a plurality of SpaceWire nodes and a plurality of multi-gigabit transceivers which command the SSDR card and read and/or write data to the SSDR card;
• a plurality of CCSDS depacketizers/packetizers which receive CCSDS packets from the plurality of Space Wire nodes and converts the CCSDS packets into first Advanced High Performance Bus (AHB) transactions;
• and
• an Advanced Extensible Bus (AXI)-to-AHB bridge, which converts AXI transactions from the plurality of multi-gigabit transceivers into second AHB transactions,
• wherein the plurality of NAND Flash memory banks is independently controlled and independently powered.
