About
The Nanosatellite Transceiver is a communication system specifically engineered for nanosatellites. Its primary purpose is to facilitate the transmission of telemetry data from the satellite to ground stations and to receive telecommands from the ground. Released in 2019, the product comes with a guaranteed service life of 1 year and an estimated production/delivery time of 6 months. While it does not currently have flight qualification, the manufacturer offers the possibility to adapt the product to specific customer requirements. Key features include a data rate of 9600 bit/s and operation on VHF and UHF radio links. It supports multiple voltage inputs (3.3 V, 5 V, battery voltage) and uses an I2C interface. Communication is based on the AX.25 message type, and it is equipped with an SMA external antenna connector. Bus options include PC104 or an original design.
