MANiaC DPU Prototype
Development of a DPU prototype for the MANiaC instrument on-board Comet Interceptor
Short Description
The Space Research Institute contributes to the massspectrometer MANiaC, part of the Comet Interceptor mission, the digital processing unit (DPU). Due to the big amount of data, gathered during the flyby and the high data rate of the sensor, a new processor type shall be used. This project concentrates on the development of a prototype of the MANiaC DPU.
