 ASIM Family Overview
| Category | Hardware |
| Subcategory | ASIM (Advanced Sensor Interface Module) |
| Version | - | | Name | ASIM Family Overview | | Description | PnP Innovations has developed several key avionics components to support plug-and-play for space. Plug-and-play is essential for rapidly assembled, and configurable spacecraft. One such component is the ASIM (Advanced Sensor Interface Module), whose purpose is to facilitate interfacing components to a PnP satellite architecture. The PnP protocol specifies interfaces at many levels, including power subsystems, data communications, test signal injection support, and timing distribution & synchronization. For a component developer, handling these interfaces can be daunting task. Using an ASIM as the interface component can vastly facilitate integration within the PnP network. The ASIM contains the necessary PnP interfaces to be fully compliant while also providing component side interfaces such as serial ports, digital I/O with RS422 signaling, and other configurable peripherals.
PnPI has developed a family of ASIMs to meet diverse requirements, ranging from rad hard 8 or 32-bit ASIMs, to compact low power CubeSat ASIMs.
