Thermo-Cooler Controller Kiefer, Mary, Molly, Sam
Revised SOW We will create a robust circuit driver within the Cloud CubeSat size constraints that actively reduces, filters, and controls the 12V signal provided by the satellite to regulate a thermo- cooler responsible for bringing the SWIR detectors in the camera to 200K (+/-.1K) in less than five minutes.
