- 20230130 - Master Thesis - Preliminary learning objectives
- 20230210 - TFM - First meeting with Denis
- 20230322 - Meeting thesis 22 March
- 20230606 - Reu ESA BIC con Julio y Carlos
- 20230817 - Last meeting with Rene Thesis and using the thesis on a course
- 20230913 - Reu Julio Organizacion Open day ESA
Resources:
- Gitlab DTUSAT3
- List of components in the lab, this is from Denis. Rene did another that is in DTU Inside. The can transceiver is code 64.
- 20230220 - DTUSat LPCXpresso workspace install
Formal writting/planning:
- 20230213 - TFM Formal Rules
- 20230213 - TFM - Project plan
- Latex project
- 20230626 - TFM Report Important questions
DTUSat 3 resources:
- Master Thesis Report OBC
- 20230206 - DTUSat Kicad configuration
- 20230206 - DTUSat COMMS Lora subsystem
- 20230212 - DTUSat SSCB
- 20230228 - DTUSAT OBC
I explaned all the different part of my concept in:
Things I need to buy:
- Buck / boost converters
- LORA Antennas
- LORA Components
- Circuit charger batterias (18650).
- Lora evaluation Board
Stock components:
- 0 Semiconductor
- 1 Resistors
- 2 Capacitors
- 3 Inductors
- 4 Mechanial
- 5 PCB’s
40 pin connector that René uses is:
- Female: DF17(4.0)-40DS-0.5V(57) - 8 in stock in Mechanical box (unlabeled). I put them all together in a bag.
- Male: DF17(4.0)-40DP-0.5V(57) - 23 in stock in Mechanical box (unlabeled)
There are tons of ATMEGA64L 8au 0545b in the radiogrouppe
0805 and 0603 in Fauna.

Meetings:
Updates for thesis:
- SSCB fixed and “working”
- Being able to connect to COM module, program it
- Gantt chart
- Project plan
Things I need:
- Where are the IC of the Obc?
- Where are lpc for COM?
Meeting 22022023:
- René told me that we have money, like couple of thousand corona.
- Put the info of how I fixed the subsystems on campus
- Project plan, only 1 page.
- Idea of the project. Explain that there is work, a bit detailed, but not too much.
- Gantt charts and millestones.
