Abstract
The design, manufacturing and calibration of an improved miniaturized two axis sun sensor for satellite attitude control will be shown. The high precision is obtained by the subdivision of the field of view (FOV). The FOV and the resolution obtained are ±60° and 0.5° for the coarse measure and ±6° with precision better than 0.05° for the fine measure.
