D02Flight & guidance computers

Compute flight guidance and system commands.

Manufacturers & products

Flight management, flight-control and actuator-control computers do different jobs. Compare each by function and approved integration rather than processor speed alone.

Program applicability is stated for each listing. 737NG, 737 MAX, and other aircraft examples are distinct configurations; listed products are not automatically interchangeable or approved for installation.

What remains unverified

  • Complete safety/latency data and exact 737NG FCC supplier-part mappings are not public in the sources collected.

Where it comes from

A company address is shown separately from a published factory location. Request the manufacturing site and lot traceability for the exact part when sourcing.

What to compare

  • Function boundary

    Separate route planning/FMS, autopilot/FCC, actuator control and generic avionics hosting.

  • Aircraft and software baseline

    Effectivity is tied to both hardware part number and loaded software.

  • I/O and timing

    Bus count, latency and deterministic behavior govern integration.

  • Redundancy and independence

    Assess cross-monitoring and common-mode dependencies.

  • Assurance evidence

    Request the program's hardware/software approval and environmental basis.

  • Power and cooling · V / W

    Evaluate normal/transient input and heat rejection.

  • Rack envelope and mass · mm / kg

    Include mounting, connectors and service-clearance space.

  • Data loading and support

    Review navigation database, configuration control and service-life support.

Selection & integration notes
  • A navigation processor with a compatible bus is not automatically interchangeable with a flight-control computer.
