Time-Triggered Ethernet (TTEthernet) is an advanced form of Ethernet designed for applications that require high levels of determinism and redundancy, particularly evident in aerospace and space projects. TTEthernet offers an integrated solution for complex systems that mandates reliable time-sensitive operations, such as those required in human spaceflight where triple redundancy is crucial for mission-critical environments.
This technology supports dual fault-tolerance by using triple-redundant networks, ensuring that the system continues to function if failures occur. It's exceptionally suited for systems with rigorous safety-critical requirements and has been employed in ventures like NASA's Orion spacecraft thanks to its robust standard compliance and support for fault-tolerant synchronization protocols.
Adhering to the ECSS engineering standards, TTEthernet facilitates seamless integration and enables bandwidth efficiencies that are significant for both onboard and ground-based operations. TTTech's TTEthernet solutions have been further complemented by their proprietary scheduling tools and chip IP offerings, which continue to set industry benchmarks in network precision and dependability.
