Scientific paper

The IRAS (Infra-Red Astronomical Satellite) onboard computer configuration evolved from the ANS computer. The present paper describes considerations which led to the choice of a commercial minicomputer architecture from the Philips P800 range for the IRAS. Consideration is given to how this architecture was implemented in a space-qualifiable design and what measures had to be taken to make the system compatible with the space requirements.
