Xiphos Q7 ACS Daughterboard
Daughterboard for the Q7 processor providing attitude control system interfaces and switchable power outputs for smallsat OBC/ACS applications.
Description
The Q7 Attitude Control System (ACS) daughterboard is a daughterboard for the Q7 processor card that provides a suite of functions and interfaces commonly required in a satellite ACS subsystem. Given the large suite of interfaces and functions available on the board, it can also be used in more general applications, where only a subset of the available functions are required. The Q7 ACS daughterboard, in conjunction with the Q7, is generally used as an Attitude Control System computer or as a satellite platform's Onboard Computer (OBC). It can also be used for more general use, connecting to numerous other systems in a bus or payload for command and control applications.
