From the project
Repo for the OreSat +/-Z end cards (Card #1 and #20)
The +Z End Card fits in the very "top" slot (Slot #1) in the OreSat backplane. It's special because it hosts whatever antenna is on the +Z face, and also interfaces with the solar modules on the +Z "U" of the CubeSat. The +Z End Card:
- Connects to the backplane with a main connector and two RF SMPM connectors - Connects four +Z solar modules to the backplane - Mounts and matches to the S band helical antenna - Routes an SMPM connector to a U.FL connector to jump up to the +Z End Cap's S band patch antenna - Has an OPD circuit to control: - Deploying the helical antenna - Switching C3-UART…
