AMSAT CAN-Do! Project

• The problem is that traditional wiring harnesses suck!
  • Fairly static once wired
  • Every module's interface is different
  • Mass
• Incremental Testing and Integration
  • Critical to our success
  • Hard to test things that require IHU involvement
  • Too many tests aren't “in flight mode”

• Our solution is a standard module interface based on the CAN bus, with power switch, command outputs, and analog and digital telemetry inputs...

  • Selected for use on AMSAT Eagle, P3E, and P5A projects!
