4.3 Application to the homemade on-board computer of<br />

<strong>OUFTI</strong>-1<br />

Now, the several methods discussed through section 4.2 will be applied to the particular<br />

case of the homemade OBC of <strong>OUFTI</strong>-1. This electronic card is located just above the<br />

FM 430 card from Pumpkin (as shown in Figure 4.11).<br />

4.3.1 Denition of the PCB properties<br />

Each electronic card of <strong>OUFTI</strong>-1 was manufactured by Deltatec [55], a very high-level<br />

design house specialized in advanced technologies. They provided us the properties of the<br />

FR 4 material they used to manufacture the PCB of the <strong>OUFTI</strong>-1 electronic cards. These<br />

properties are presented in Table 4.2.<br />

Properties Values<br />

Young's modulus 20 GP a<br />

Poisson ratio 0.3<br />

Density 2200 kg/m 3<br />

Ultimate stress 423 MP a<br />
