| 摘要 |
A spacecraft avionics module that is for the most part functionally independent of a core spacecraft structure, and provides its own structural integrity, thermal management and some level of power management. The illustrative embodiment of the module is formed as a flat panel that also serves as a thermal radiator. Electronic components are mounted directly onto the panel, which is normally attached by mounting hardware to the core spacecraft structure, through a backbone interface that provides data interconnection between modules and, in some cases, supplies unregulated power to the module. The module may include a power regulation function, or may also include power storage and power generation functions. For complete independence, the module may also include its own attitude control system.
