Our hardware and software progress have been very good.
We have just received our first pass on a full cubesat sized pacsat board. We initially encountered some hardware issues but now have the processor functioning and are in the process of testing the primary cpu interfaces.
This board includes 4 uplink receivers, 1 downlink transmitter, transmitter power amp, RAM for message storage, and miscellaneous watch dogs, etc. The JTAG interface is operational.
Our test software ( as demonstrated at the 2023 annual meeting ) is being ported to this board.
