The purpose of this study is to present a Real Time Operating System embedded ARM-7 microcontroller-based module, CANDARMA. CANDARMA is an experimental payload module settled in low earth orbit remote sensing satellite. The significance of CANDARMA comes from the various experimental applications performed on it. These studies include usage of an ARM-7 architecture based microcontroller, running a Real Time Operating System on the microcontroller, experiencing two different high speed analog to digital converters and various integrated circuits, which will bring in knowledge for future satellite designs. This paper describes CANDARMA's implementation key points and benchmarks in details which can be used in analog and imaging applications in satellite systems.
