Modern space-rated Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) have enabled entirely new system architectures and increased data throughput. These advances in FPGAs require technology to be able to support data-handling applications at high data rates. SpaceFibre is a high-performance, high-availability datalink and network technology specifically designed for spaceflight applications, where the technology is used to transfer data from instruments to processing and storage elements onboard the spacecraft, and to the downlink transmitter that sends data to ground. STAR-Tiger is a ten-port SpaceFibre routing switch with a bisectional bandwidth of 100 Gbit/s developed by STAR-Dundee. This paper discusses in detail the power-supply design for the STAR-Tiger SpaceFibre routing switch.
