SatNOGS Rotator Controller

Electronics designs for SatNOGS Rotator.

Repository includes all source files of PCB's for the SatNOGS rotator controller assembly.

Firmware can be found on satnogs-rotator-firmware.

Documentation

More information can be found in our wiki.

Repository policy

SatNOGS hardware repositories only track source design files. All needed derivative files (e.g. stl, grb etc) for production are created per release, packaged in an archive and uploaded linked to a release.

Master branch is most times under active development, so expect things to break. For production ready and previous releases source files check tags.

Contribute

The main repository lives on Gitlab and all Merge Request should happen there.

Questions

How big is the Satnogs controller PCB?

It measures 100 × 80 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Satnogs controller use?

107 parts, built around the PCA9540BD and TPS54360DDA. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the Satnogs controller KiCad files?

From the tt-laboratories/satnogs-rotator-controller repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is satnogs_controller/satnogs_controller.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Satnogs controller design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask tt-laboratories before reusing the design.
