So you’re saying they are using 16 parallel, clock locked Arduinos with RAD hardened components that combine the outputs and split the inputs? What would it take for us to do the same with NETMF? (From Thread [url]https://www.ghielectronics.com/community/forum/topic?id=19756&page=5#msg195482[/url])
No, nothing that advanced. There’s one arduino supervisor node that can program each of the 16 other nodes. Near as I can tell, it’s all stock chips. The rest of the stuff (power and other subsystems) looks more spacey : GOMspace | Products
All the details of the board are readily googleable… I found this video interesting : EEVblog #519 - Ardusat Arduino Based CubeSat Satellite - YouTube
Of course, we could do that and more with netmf - probably much more.
Aw that video was awesome. They launch it like a jack in the box
