Component engineering consists of all the activities needed to correct the components’ correct selection, adapting their characteristics to the specific project requirements. It is easy to understand that for the correct component selection is therefore indispensable the availability of a PA plan. A component selection must be made, considering all the provisions stated in the PA plan regarding design, production, planning, and testing.

Product Assurance is a key step in New Space projects where SMALL SATS is one of the protagonists; due to the relatively low maturity of the sector and COTS parts for this type of mission. The Product Assurance Plan is the first step to a successful and well-managed project, and many of the activities that will be developed during the mission will be based on this Product Assurance Plan.

Current exuberance of the New Space market is characterized among other factors by the use of COTS components and minimized requirements in product assurance and testing policy. This results ultimately in relatively high failure rates of the missions which have been allowed by the relatively low maturity of the New Space sector and the just-for-demonstration purpose of many of the missions.

Microchip’s AVR8 ATmegaS64M1/ATmegaS128 and ARM32 M7 SAMV71Q21 Flight Models (FM) are available in ceramic package with screening equivalent to QML class Q and QML class V quality levels. Engineering samples are available as well. Developing radiation-hardened systems for space applications means long lead times and high cost toward achieving the necessary levels of reliability for multi-year missions in harsh environments.

The preferred procurement channel is through the manufacturers, and if not, through duly authorised/franchised distributors, which allow minimizing the risk of delivery of counterfeit parts. In any case, a specific anti-counterfeit policy will be applied and all required test to be performed to validate the authenticity of the parts upon reception of the parts.
