Description
Tyvak will develop a deployable solar array for WeatherSat using three independent panels that will be stowed during launch using a hold down release mechanism and then deployed as part of the on orbit boot up sequence of the spacecraft. The system will be interfaced with a Tyvak Maximum Power Point Tracking Module that will continuously track the peak power point and transfer energy to the energy storage system.
