Xiphos Systems Corporation

Xiphos Systems Corporation develops specialized space-grade embedded processing solutions, such as on-board computers and payload processors. Their Q-Card product families leverage hybrid CPU and FPGA architectures, providing high-efficiency signal processing with ultra-low Size, Weight, and Power (SWaP). Engineered for demanding conditions, these systems serve critical mission functions in space environments.

Founded in Montreal, Quebec, in 1996, Xiphos Systems Corporation adapted terrestrial computing for challenging aerospace applications. Expertise in specialized hardware was cultivated. Acquired by Epiq Solutions in 2023, Xiphos continues its dedication to advanced space computing within the new corporate family.

Xiphos processors are vital for diverse space applications: Low-Earth Orbit missions, deep space exploration, and essential subsystems for small satellite launchers. The company envisions integrating sophisticated processing, including on-board AI, into space infrastructure, continuously expanding operational possibilities for its clientele.

Xiphos Systems Corporation is a Montreal-based supplier of space-grade, low‑SWaP‑C embedded processing boards and subsystems used in satellites, launchers, robotics and other harsh-environment applications, now a subsidiary of Epiq Solutions after being founded in 1996[2][1].
