Applications of Spacelab Payload Standard Modular Electronics /SPSME/

The NASA sponsored Spacelab Payload Standard Modular Electronics program has been designed with the basic objective of providing a space-qualified set of standardized modular electronics to support investigations identified for Spacelab payloads. These units are reusable, have functional, physical, and interface characteristics which allow them to be conveniently assembled in a multitude of configurations, and functionally interchangeable with their ground-based equivalents. The interfacing and control modules are described and typical hardware applications are presented.

NASA standard experiment command and data system for Shuttle/Spacelab payloads

The paper deals with the Spacelab Payload Standard Modular Electronics (SPSME) system promising to provide cost savings to the space community due to its universal application to most Spacelab experiments. This hardware will provide the necessary interfaces between Spacelab CDMS and the experiment dedicated processor.
