About
SPUTNIX SXC-MB-04-ADC is a Raspberry Pi Compute Module carrier combining the main OBC, a standalone ADCS controller, and a sensor suite on a single PC/104 board. All onboard devices accessible on CAN bus. Features flexible hierarchy: LP-MCU only mode for efficient energy harvesting, ADCS mode for pointing, or full Raspberry Pi for payload operations. Every programmable device has bootloader with in-flight firmware update.
