About

The TensorMTQ series is designed for small satellites and delivered as magnetorquer rods, with or without H-bridge driving circuits. They can be interfaced directly with a flight computer or with a dedicated ADCS board, also available from Tensor Tech. TensorMTQ-200 is the highest-dipole-moment rod in the range, intended for larger SmallSat platforms, with two selectable operating points via an optional PWM-controlled driving circuit.
