    • X,Y - 100x83
  • In center of module is hole for another module
    • Approximate size of module is 46x30 mm
    • Mounting to frame is via 4 bolts in corners of board
  • Integrated components: Optodiode, temperature measuring IC

Sensors

  • Temperature sensor: AT30TS74
  • Photo diode:
    • VEMD5510C - 550nm (450-750) - visible
    • VEMD5060X - 800nm (500-1000) - visible + IR
    • VEMD5160X - 850nm (750-950) - IR (used)
  • ADC for photodiode: ADS7142

Cables

Stack connector

EPS

  • Two identical modules on one board
  • Both connected to stack connector
  • Other board could be connected to both or one of then
    • Power oring must be solved
  • Connected to main CAN

Power output

  • 3 regulated and monitored power rails - 1V8, 3V3, 5V
    • Output regulator - TPS63002DRCR
    • 0.8A (boost) up to 1.2A (buck) output
    • 2.2 uH coil
  • 1 unregulated output of battery, monitored
  • Monitoring via current sensors (INA??)

Battery

Battery heating

Access port module

Connectors:

  • USB-C

    • data connected to mission computer or flight computer
    • power connected to EPS for battery charging
  • 2x SWD port for programing and debugging of Flight and Mission computer

  • main CAN bus connector

  • UART debug port

  • Realized as stack of two PCB boards

    • Front acts only as cover for connectors
    • Connectors are mounted on rear board
    • Connectors are accessible via cutouts in frontz board
    • Rear board is mounted to front via column spacers

Other parts:

  • LTC4415 - Dual ideal diode with ORing
  • MAX16171 - Ideal Diode Controller with Reverse-Current Protection
  • BQ25798 - solar battery charger with dual-input selector and MPPT, I2C, https://www.ti.com/product/BQ25798
  • BAT54W-G - Low drop shottky diode, solar blocking diode
  • BQ27421YZFT-G1A - Fuel gauge
