From the project
Proyecto Final para el armado de un nanoSat
Este documento resume las placas, elementos estructurales, componentes externos, cableado y tornillería necesarios para el armado de la plataforma PocketQube.
Link de la wiki donde se explica todo sobre el proyecto:
- 4 integrados en las pqlatboard - 1 integrado en la pqbotboard - 1 en la PQMagYBoard`
Los magnetorquers integrados en las placas se forman mediante pistas/bobinas de cobre del propio PCB, por lo que no se compran como componentes independientes.
