About
The DROP-03 is a deployable solar panel system engineered for 3U and 6U CubeSats. It features one deployable element with a deployment configuration of 135°/90°. The front side of the panel provides 7.5W of power. Additional power options include a backstring option, which adds another 7.5W, and a body-mounted option, contributing an extra 7.5W, bringing the total power to 22.5W. The peak platform power is also stated as 22.5W. The open-circuit voltage (OC Voltage) is 15.6V. The deployment system is dual redundant, ensuring reliable operation. This system is suggested for use with 3U and 6U CubeSat platforms.
