Small Business Innovation Research/Small Business Tech Transfer
Miniaturized System-in-Package Motor Controller for Spacecraft and Orbital Instruments, Phase I
Project Introduction
Honeybee Robotics proposes to miniaturize a heritage spaceflight motor controller using System-in-Package technology. This motor controller will be a universal solution for the control of BLDC, PMSM, and microstepping motors in robotic space systems and orbital instruments, with a form factor at least 75% smaller than comparable units.
