Project description

WIZnet Ethernet in a Liquid Rocket Pressure Control System — Analyzing UC Berkeley SEB's E-Reg TL;DR: UC Berkeley's student rocket team, Space Enterprise at Berkeley (SEB), builds an Automatic Electronic Pressure Regulator (E-Reg) that electronically controls propellant tank pressure on their liquid-fuel rockets. Looking at the code, each ESP32-based E-Reg node talks to Ground Station using a hardware UDP socket via the Arduino Ethernet library — a rare case of WIZnet's TOE running not an IoT or industrial protocol, but a real-time distributed control network for rocket propulsion. And this…
