B4. Electrical Interface
B4. 1 Separation connector of Lightband®
Two separation connectors of Lightband® are used as standard. See Section B3 (9) for its appearance.
The electrical interface is shown in Table B4-1.
LV uses some pins on each separation connector as shown in Table B4-1 with short wires connected
for detecting separation status. Pins other than those used by LV are available for Customer.
Customer may use these separation connectors as separation switches; however, it should be noted
that the connectors have the normally open contact and that the status is open after separation. In
addition, LV does not guarantee any Micro satellite the use of the separation connectors after separation
in its orbit.
Electrical connections between a Micro satellite and LV or launch site facilities are not provided via
umbilical line as standard.
Customer can access its PL for charging its battery or other operations before mating with Lightband®
or before encapsulation into PLF.
The separation connectors serve as bonding pass between Lightband® upper ring and its lower ring.

Two separation switches of Lightband® are used as standard. If 3 switches are needed, contact your
Program Director. See Section B3 (10) for its appearance.

LV does not guarantee any Micro satellite the use of the separation switches in its orbit.

(2) Separation Switch provided by PL
PL can install separation switches chosen and provided by itself, instead of separation switches of
Lightband®, on the Lightband® upper ring.
After PL connected with the Lightband, separation switches are inaccessible, and the dimensions
around them cannot be measured.
Strokes of the separation switches are defined in ICD because their movement in height direction are
affected by reaction force of the separation switches. Customer shall inform Program Director of the
reaction force.
The separation switches of Lightband® are recommended if Customer is to require high accuracy of
PL rate in separation because the separation springs are arranged based on reaction force of the
separation switches of Lightband®.
Since separation switches provided by PL can greatly increase PL rate in separation, Customer should
consult Program Director for their use.

B4. 3 Bonding
Bonding is also described in Section 4.4.6.
PL is electrically connected with Lightband® upper ring via fasteners and inserts (Figure B4-3).
Customer shall confirm in advance that the resistance between two points as shown below meets the
required value described in Section 4.4.6.
(1) A head or washer of each fastener fixed on Lightband® upper ring
(2) PL main structure
Bonding jumpers are also acceptable for ensuring the electrical connectivity .
