A FLEXIBLE DATA ACQUISITION, CONTROL AND TELEMETRY SYSTEM FOR EXPERIMENTAL PAYLOADS

ITC/USA 2005 Conference Proceedings / The Forty-First Annual International Telemetering Conference and Technical Exhibition / October 24-27, 2005 / Riviera Hotel & Convention Center, Las Vegas, Nevada / Experimental science payloads vary greatly in design for the purpose of performing specialized
tasks. As such, their supporting control, data acquisition and telemetry subsystems are often
expensive custom designed units with specific abilities, thus limiting reuse.
This paper presents a payload control, data acquisition and telemetry system capable of
providing a range of functionality to science payloads as a consequence of its accommodating
architecture, programmability, and physical modular design. Details of the system and its
capabilities are presented followed by an actual configuration of the system as the backbone of a
micro-electro-mechanical-systems technology demonstration payload designed for suborbital
flight.
