摘要
This paper describes an onboard computer with dual processing modules. Each processing module is composed of 32 bit ARM reduced instruction set computer processor and other commercial-off-the-shelf devices. A set of fault handling mechanisms is implemented in the computer system, which enables the system to tolerate a single fault. The onboard software is organized around a set of processes that communicate among each other through a routing process. Meeting an extremely tight set of constraints that include mass, volume, power consumption and space environmental conditions, the fault-tolerant onboard computer has excellent data processing capability that can meet the erquirements of micro-satellite missions.
