About
The Nanosatellite Electrical Power System, released in 2016, is a specialized board engineered to supply electrical power to nanosatellite systems and efficiently harvest energy from solar cells. It offers a guaranteed service life of 1 year and can be adapted to meet specific customer requirements. Key features include one constant and three switchable channels for both 3.3 V and 5 V outputs, direct access to cell voltage, and short current protection on all switchable channels to ensure system safety. For solar energy management, it incorporates three Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) converters. The system also includes a start-stop mechanism with a trigger and offers bus options for PC104 or an original interface. It provides 6 constant and 2 switchable channels in total, with a maximum current of 3 A and output voltages of 3.3 V and 5 V. The cell converter channels are 3, and the Watchdog Timer (WDT) delay can be set from 1 to 3000 seconds. It supports cell voltages of 7.4 V and 14.8 V.
