… Pulled by the Earth, it plunged into the ocean, resulting in a total mission failure. Along with the spacecraft, Chinaâs first Mars orbiter, In this article we take a look at how electronics of spacecraft are built to survive the harshness of space environments and some interesting peeks into different space missions.Electronic components used in spacecraft must be built to survive the harsh space environment and function reliably in it. Two of Sensors Unlimited's SWIR-InGaAs cameras have been launched into space and are now in transit to the moon aboard the LCROSS shepherding spacecraft. Advanced CMOS technology and Imperx engineering expertise provision cameras with excellent uniformity for the highest levels of image quality, unique features like wide dynamic range, flexible trigger/strobe options, and a choice of Camera Link™, USB3 Vision™, GigE Vision™, and 3G-SDI interfaces.Imperx Aerospace cameras feature a thermally optimized design, 14-bit internal data processing, 8, 10, 12 or 14-bit selectable output, low noise and greater than 60dB dynamic range. It turns out that using individually-tested space-grade components, one of the most radiation-hardened CPUs, and making use of redundant components is still not enough to face the harsh environment near Jupiter, the planet with the largest magnetosphere in the solar system.The RAD750 CPU is designed to withstand up to 1 million rads of radiation on its own, which is remarkable. Sensors Unlimited also hosted a MoonPie LCROSS Lunar Crash Party in Princeton, NJ to celebrate this exciting event. Teledyne e2v has been trusted to design and deliver CCD and CMOS imaging sensors and sub-systems for over 150 space missions by the world’s largest space agencies, including NASA, ESA, JAXA, CNSA and most recently for the Russian-led World Space Observatory. Spacecraft electronics must be built with all these factors in mind.Apart from the Phobos-Grunt incident, letâs have a look at space missions which act as a constant reminder of the harsh, unforgiving nature of space exploration. 4Mpx CMOS Space Camera; Part Number Description Package Temperature SCD# 3DCM739/3DCM734: CMOS Space Camera.
