DSACTRL: Microsat/Cubesat Deployables and HDRM automated controller for reliable deploy/release operations

DSACTRL is an HDRM and deployables manager that automates the release and deploys operations on a vast array of devices and HDRM techniques: from huge solar arrays to micro sized ones, hatches, antennas, booms and similar. It can manage MMA (memory metals) Pyro cutters, thermal knife, solenoids and motorized devices.

 

DSACTRL has positive TRL9 flight heritage since 2013 never failed once, not in orbit nor in the lab, this is due its robust design. DSACTRL will receive a 5V TTL signal as control and the raw battery input as power for deployables and will execute the release and deploy operations reporting to your OBC via TTL level dry contact sensors that you can receive on any GPIO entry with discrete values (0 or 5V).
