VPT Rad Discusses Cost-Effective Screening for Radiation Tolerance in Military Embedded Systems

June 16, 2016 – Victor Brisan, Senior Test Engineer at VPT Rad, recently shared information with the readers of Military Embedded Systems about utilizing cost-effective, radiation tolerant commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) components when designing non-traditional small satellites. With less stringent radiation requirements than traditional programs which require costly radiation-hardened certified components, Brisan outlines several radiation screening options available to keep costs within budget while providing the radiation tolerance and reliability required by the components used in these programs.
