About

The D-SP6X-L-1W is a deployable solar panel designed for the XY side of CubeSat structures. It features a 1-wing lateral configuration and is compatible with both 6U and 12U CubeSat platforms. The panel utilizes high-efficiency triple junction UTJ solar cells, providing a peak power output ranging from 18.4 to 20 W. It delivers a max power current of 1 to 1.04 A and a max power voltage of 18.4 to 20 V, with an open circuit voltage of 20.8 to 22 V. For power connectivity, it includes 4 parallel picoblade power connectors. The D-SP6X-L-1W offers customization options, including the ability to add additional solar cells on the body-fixed surface. Integrated sensors include a digital temperature sensor (supporting SPI / I2C communication), an NTC temperature sensor, two coarse sun sensors, an inertial module (comprising a 3D accelerometer and 3D gyroscope), and a 3-axis magnetic sensor. Alternative solar cell connection options are also available.
