DESCRIPTION
The EnduroSat onboard computer type II is a low power consumption and high performance
computing platform for nanosatellites, fully compatible with the CubeSat standard. It is based on ARM
Cortex M4 with frequency rate up to 180MHz or optionally on ARM Cortex M7 processor with
frequency rate up to 216 MHz. It comes with integrated double redundancy sensors: 3-Axis
accelerometers and compass. PWM drivers for magnetorquers and inputs for sun sensors,
temperature sensors and gyroscope allow the implementation of the attitude determination and control
systems.
Customized interfaces and connectors allow high flexibility of the unit.
A Protoboard area on the PCB allows high customization ideal for test bed and fast prototyping. It is
possible to connect additional PCB through connectors and mounting holes and to integrate easily
additional sensors and chips such as atomic clocks, GPS receiver and so on.

COMMUNICATION INTERFACES
7.1

CAN

The EnduroSat On-board computer has a CAN bus interface using a 3.3-V CAN transceiver.
External modules can be connected throughout H1-1 and H1-3 of the PC/104 connector. Same
interface can be reached from the ProtoBoard area through JP2 and JP14 connectors (TLE-110-01G-DV), for this purpose zero Ohm resistors R72 and R73 should be mounted as shown in Figure 4.

Figure 3 – Protoboard area customization

Figure 4

ONBOARD COMPUTER OBC TYPE II – USER MANUAL
7.2

USART and UART

The EnduroSat onboard computer provides two USART and one UART interfaces.
The first USART interface (H1-33 and H1-35) is used by the UHF transceiver of the EnduroSat platform.
Second USART interface is left free for the payload (H1-19 and H1-20). If the USB peripheral is
mounted (Figure 5), this interface is used for UART to USB communication (Virtual COM Port).

Figure 5 – USB peripheral location

Mounting zero Ohm resistors on R62 and R63 gives access to this interface through the connectors
JP2 or JP14 on the ProtoBoard as shown in Figure 6.

Figure 8

Moreover, the same interface can be used for communication with atomic clock if it is mounted on the
ProtoBoard area (Microsemi Quantum™ SA.45s CSAC). To realize the communication with the atomic
clock, zero ohm resistors – R62, R63, R64 and R65 have to be mounted as shown in Figure 9.

UART – is free for payload and it can be access through H1-39 / H1-40 (EnduroSat EPS Opt.).
7.3

SPI

Two 3.3V SPI interfaces are provided.
In the EnduroSat CubeSat platform the first SPI interface (H2-9, H2-10, H2-11, H2-15 and H2-16 of
the PC104 connector) is used for the EnduroSat S-Band transceiver.
The second SPI interface (H2-47, H2-48, H2-49 and H2-50 of the PC104 connector) can be used for
the payload or for generic user needs.
The second SPI interface also can be accessed through JP2 or JP14 of the ProtoBoard area mounting
zero Ohm resistors R74, R75, R76 and R77 as shown in Figure 10.

Figure 10

7.4

I2C

Two 3.3V I2C interfaces are provided.
First I2C interface (H1-41 and H1-43 of the PC104 connector) can be used as main interface among
all the subsystems of the satellite.
Second I2C interface (H1-21 and H1-23 of the PC104 connector) can be used for the payload and to
control the deployment of the EnduroSat UHF Antenna through the connector J1 located on the
ProtoBoard area. To realize the access through JP2 or JP14, zero Ohm resistors R69 and R70 and
have to be mounted (Figure 11).

Figure 11

7.5

Six General Purpose Outputs

The OBC Module has five general purpose outputs. Each output can be switched between 3.1V and
Ground. All outputs are protected with diodes. In this way other modules can control the same outputs
(there are 10k pull-down resistors on the EnduroSat EPS Type I Module). Diode OR gate can be
realized.

ATTITUDE DETERMINATION AND CONTROL SYSTEM
The EnduroSat Onboard computer comes with an embedded array of sensors for the attitude
determination and outputs for magnetorquers control.
8.1

Compass

Two 3-axis digital compass designed for low-field magnetic sensing with high-resolution are added to
the OBC periphery. Both sensors are located at the same place, but on opposite sides of the OBC.
The compass is based on magneto-resistive sensors plus an ASIC containing amplification, automatic

ENDUROSAT

14

ONBOARD COMPUTER OBC TYPE II – USER MANUAL
degaussing strap drivers, offset cancellation, and a 12-bit ADC that enables 1° to 2° compass heading
accuracy. Compass utilizes Anisotropic Magneto-resistive (AMR) technology that provides advantages
over other magnetic sensor technologies. These anisotropic, directional sensors feature
precision in-axis sensitivity and linearity. These sensors’ solid-state construction with very low crossaxis sensitivity is designed to measure both the direction and the magnitude of Earth’s magnetic fields,
from milli-gauss to 8 gauss.
8.2

Accelerometers

Two high-performance ultra low-power 3-axis accelerometers are added to OBC periphery. Both of
them are placed at the same location but on opposite site of the PCB. Accelerometers has dynamic
user-selectable full-scales of ±2g/±4g/±8g and is capable of measuring accelerations with output data
rates from 0.5 Hz to 1 kHz
8.3

Sun sensors

Six analog inputs for sun sensors. At the current OBC design filters and amplification is optimized to
EnduroSat Solar Panels Sun Sensors.
8.4

Temperature sensors

Six external temperature sensors with SPI communication interface can be connected to the OBC.
8.5

Magnetorquers control

Three independent outputs for control the magnetorquers. The control of magnetorquers is realised
with H-Bridge with 3.3V and maximum output current of 3A.

OBC PROTOBOARD AREA
9.1

USB interface

Additional USB interface can be provided on the ProtoBoard area. This interface gives accessibility to
an external device/PC (Master device) to communicate with the OBC Microcontroller (Slave device).
OBC USB interface is based on IC FT232RL - UART to USB interface (Virtual COM Port). Full driver
support can be found at http://www.ftdichip.com.
The EnduroSat On-Board Computer type II comes with electronic components for USB Interface
already mounted on it.
The USB interface can be accessed from PC/104 connector (Tx) H-19 and (Rx) H-20. Moreover, it can
be also accessed from 20pin headers “JP2” of the top side of the OBC through 11pin Rx/12pin Tx or
“JP14” from bottom side through 12pin Rx / 11pin Tx. To realize the access through “JP2” and “JP14”,
zero Ohm resistors R62, R63, R67 and R68 have to be mounted as shown in Figure 7.
Two types of connectors can be used to access the USB Interface: standard USB Mini B Connector
(USB1) or Molex 53398-0471 (P1). When EnduroSat Solar Panel with RBF and interface connector are
used in the platform, connection through it and the OBC Molex 53398-0471 can be realized with
EnduroSat 4 pin cable. In this way the OBC USB interface can be accessed with the external
EnduroSat USB adapter also when the CubeSat is fully assembled. Both USB connectors can be
connected to the ProtoBoard Connectors “JP2” (DM – pin3 / DP – pin4) and “JP14” (DM – pin4 / DP
– pin3) when zero Ohm resistors are mounted on R83 and R84 (Figure 12).

External PCB (Payload)
External PCB (Payload) can be connected to the connector located on the ProtoBoard Area. Additional
mounting holes аrе also provided. The ProtoBoard connector is the 20pin SAMTEC TLE-110-01-GDV. One is on the top side (JP2) of the OBC and the other on the bottom (JP14 -Not Mounted). This
allows to minimize the used space inside the satellite and easily access to different communication
interfaces and power supply. The interfaces on the ProtoBoard connectors should be chosen very
carefully, because they are shared between with main PC/104 connector. All pins of ProtoBoard
connectors are separated from the rest of the OBC when zero Ohm resistors are not mounted. Each
pin of the ProtoBoard connector has its own testing point located just next to it for research and
developing purposes. All test points are plated holes with pitch 0.1inch (2.54mm) and diameter of
0.060inch.

Stripboard grid
For developing and prototyping purposes an area of OBC is left as a stripboard grid with 11 holes on
16 strips. All holes are plated with grid spacing of 0.1inch(2.54mm) and diameter of 0.060inch. All holes
in the first strip are connected to the 5V BUS, in the second strip to 3.3V BUS and the last one to GND.
These power strips can be recognized by the square rings.

9.4

Atomic Clock Ready
On the protoboard area, there are mounting holes for Quantum™ SA.45s Chip Scale Atomic Clock
(CSAC) from Microsemi. UART interface can be connected through zero Ohm resistors. Access to
other pins of the atomic clock can be realized with plated holes next to each pin.

SD Card Holder
Direct access to SD Card holder is enable through 12pin connector JP15 – Molex 53398-1271. The
SD card is shared between high speed data payload and OBC to resend trough the RF communication
module.
