Spacecrafts and space missions require in-depth testing during verification and integration phases. These are accomplished through very specific test equipment that effectively allow investigating any test scenario for which the satellite has been designed. All test equipment and tools designed for this scope represent the Electric Ground Segment Equipment of a mission. In this paper complete test equipment for the most widespread On-Board Data Handling protocols is presented: the SpaceWire/SpaceFibre Analyser Real-Time (SpaceART). SpaceART provides serial link communication interfaces for present and future spacecraft On-Board Data Handling: the State- Of-The-Art SpaceWire technology, the non-standardized solution usually adopted for Gigabit communication WizardLink and the newly released standard SpaceFibre protocol. SpaceART is an innovative instrument easy to customize upon user requirements, regardless of the peculiarity of desired test scenarios. After a brief introduction to the currently available SpaceFibre compliant test-equipment, the paper provides an overview of SpaceART architecture. Finally, two of the most relevant real use cases are reported as proof of the instrument’s effectiveness.
