Progress on Cubesat Systems
Evolved from our previous 1st generation EPS, Aphelion’s Primary Bus Module (PBM) is now undergoing rigorous testing in our facility! The PBM is a highly integrated, single-board electrical power system and OBC which supports Cubesats up to 3U, offering significant mass and volume savings while simplifying system design. And we will be offering it at a great price! Complete software drivers are supplied for PerihelionOS and we offer comprehensive support and service integrating it into your Cubesat mission.
Features include:
- 5 maximum power point tracking (MPPT) inputs with 40W input capacity
- 7 independently controlled and monitored output rails with an output capacity of 5V/3A and 3.3V/4A
- 4 channels dedicated for high current deployment mechanisms
- High-performance OBC processor with EEPROM, SD card slot, and integrated MEMS accelerometer/gyroscope
- High-reliability 6-layer PCB and space-rated Lithium cells individually tested in thermal vacuum according to GSFC-STD-7000 standard
We are currently in the process of qualifying production techniques, so the release date is tentatively set for December 2017. And we are offering a small discount for everyone who signs up below!
