About
The MAI-KE Sun Sensor is a crucial component for various spacecraft missions that require accurate sun detection. It provides an analog voltage output ranging from approximately 0 to 250mV. This output can be directly fed into a microcontroller’s Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) or routed through signal conditioning circuitry to achieve a 0 to 5V voltage range, making it versatile for integration into different spacecraft systems. The MAI Sun Sensors are sold in packs of six, ensuring comprehensive coverage for attitude determination. They are specifically designed to be compatible with the MAI-400 ADACS, facilitating seamless integration into existing ADACS architectures.
