Abstract
The following paper details the current state of the Payload Avionics Interface Board (PAIB) design for the VISORS
mission. It is also intended as a resource for the students who will continue to develop its design into the future and
manufacture the first realizations of this design. Context is provided for the entire VISORS mission as well as the
need for this specific subsystem and how it contributes to success of the mission. The motivation and requirements
for the PAIB are summarized to define the scope of the subsystem. Electrical and mechanical interfaces for the
PAIB are discussed. Detail is provided for design decisions and component selection which has been completed thus
far, with some guidance provided to aid in additional component selection. Finally, open action items and risks are
discussed to set the stage for the next actions which must be completed to ensure development remains on schedule.
