About
The ISISPACE Compact Electrical Power System (ICEPS2) is ideal for up to 3UXL CubeSats. It features GaN-FETs for efficient solar power conversion, Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT), and integrated battery heating. ICEPS2 is available in three variants ensuring customised mission performance with reliable off-the-shelf efficiency.
Type A is the most compact variant (26.45 mm height, 22.5 Wh storage), while Types B and C provide 45 Wh storage with different PCB configurations. All variants feature 3 independent MPPT channels and are compatible with the CSKB (CubeSat Kit Bus) interface.
The system includes multiple voltage output domains: unregulated bus (VD0, 1 channel), 5V (VD1, 4 channels), and 3.3V (VD2, 4 channels). Protection features include Emergency Low Power Mode, hardware supervisor with watchdog, and overcurrent/thermal limits on all output channels. Communication via I²C.
