PIU

(Payload Interface Unit)

PIU is a reliable interface unit that can be adapted to different satellite platforms (e.g. micro satellite). Thanks to its smart unit, cost-effective material diversity, and modular unit structure, it can meet various digital and analog interface needs.

PIU provides the following features to the satellite flight segment:

  • Smart unit and peripheral components for payload software
  • TM-TC services and interfaces for imaging and scientific payloads
  • Controlling and monitoring of payloads via CAN, RS-422/RS-485, Spacewire and LVDS data buses.
  • Failure tolerant architecture based on redundancy and hardware protection
