The aim of this paper is to maintain desired orientation and orbital position of the satellite by effectively controlling the temperature using FPGA. Thermal control is essential for better performance and success of mission because if component is subjected to temperature which is too high or too low, it could be damaged or its performance could be severely affected. A satellite moves around the planet in a definite orbit, due to some external factors like temperature, precipitation etc the satellite tends to move away from its orbit or change the direction of its motion. If it is so, then its output also varies. Hence it is required to maintain the temperature of satellite for its proper functioning. In the proposed system, the temperature is maintained constant by using temperature controller implemented in ACTEL FPGA which is a reusable IP Core. The main advantage of using ACTEL FPGA is that it can be used in radiation hardened environment.
