About TTTech Aerospace

TTTech Aerospace provides deterministic embedded network and platform solutions for aerospace and space applications.

Its products have already completed over 1 billion flight hours in Level A safety-critical applications like fly-by-wire, power systems, avionics, engine controls and environmental control systems and covered distances of more than two million kilometers in deep space.

TTTech Aerospace is part of the TTTech Group, whose solutions are applied in markets like mobile machinery, aerospace, smart manufacturing and automation and are trusted by many renowned market leaders, based on 20 years of technology leadership.

Reaching for the sky with certified and safe solutions for the aerospace market

TTTech Aerospace has been engaged in the aerospace market since 1998. Worldwide industry market leaders like Airbus, Boeing, Bombardier Embraer, Lockheed Martin, COMAC and their systems suppliers use TTTech Aerospace’s solutions in their programs.

We provide development, testing, flight, and network configuration equipment for safety-critical applications. Products such as chip IP, ASICs, and on-board hardware enable system integration, set-up of deterministic networks (ARINC 664 part 7, TTEthernet^®, TTP^®) and the design and integration of advanced integrated aircraft systems.

Exploring new ways to simplify spacecraft software and system architectures

TTTech Aerospace also offers reliable radiation-hardened components and integrated modules for Deterministic Ethernet networking applications designed for the use in extreme environmental conditions found in space exploration and human-rated space flight missions. TTTech Aerospace’s avionic backbone network systems act as the “central nervous system” of e.g. NASA‘s Orion spacecraft, the European Service Module by ESA (ESM) and the Ariane 6 launch vehicle.

NASA and its international space agency partners have named TTEthernet^®, the deterministic networking technology developed by TTTech, as “International Avionics Systems Interoperability Standards (IASIS)” for programs like the Gateway and future deep space missions.
