Abstract: A spacecraft control electronics system provides multi-functionality to a spacecraft in a single electronics box. The system is subdivided into a plurality of modular electronic subunits. Each of the modular subunits plugs into a backplane in the electronics box and is positioned side-by-side. A serial data bus in the backplane of the box interconnects the modular subunits to each other. The data bus provides fully redundant, standard interfacing for the modular subunits. The plurality of electronic subunits provides spacecraft attitude determination, control, telemetry and command and data processing functions to the spacecraft as one unit. The electronics box connects to the spacecraft harness via external connectors. The spacecraft has a minimum number of harness connections as a result of the integrated functions in the spacecraft control electronics system. The control system applies selective internal redundancy in its subunits.
