SpaceWire is now being used on many spacecraft for payload data-handling applications. Several new protocols have recently been published enhancing the level of standardization that SpaceWire offers. For example, the SpaceWire Remote Memory Access Protocol (RMAP) provides a means of reading or writing to memory in a remote node over a SpaceWire network, and is already being used on several missions. Additional protocols are being developed including SpaceWire-D, which aims to support control applications running over SpaceWire that need deterministic data transfer. This paper introduces the latest set of protocols designed to operate over SpaceWire and describes SpaceWire-D in some detail. STAR-Dundee has developed and extended its range of test and development equipment to support the new protocols running over SpaceWire. This new range of test equipment from STAR-Dundee, which provides comprehensive evaluation, development and test capabilities, is described.
