dc.description.abstract | When designing electronic systems for
space applications, engineers must take into
consideration the extreme operating conditions of
space environment. Electronics devices operating
outside the Earth atmosphere are exposed to very
high/low temperatures and radiation. Radiation
exposure is very dangerous for electronic systems
because it can compromise their operation.
Semiconductive components are sensitive to
accumulated ionization as a result of radiation
exposure. Honeywell Aerospace is currently testing
a general purpose processor (GPP) unit designed
to be radiation tolerant. This will allow the device
to device to be used in various space applications.
