After our webinar about Product Assurance for New Space Missions, offered by our expert Eladio Montoya, you can already watch the video online in our platform.

In this post, you can read all the questions launched by the attendees, as well as all the answers
offered by the speaker.

Q.- Can we consider COTS components to be used in the mobile industry?

A.- Of course, smartphone applications are the main driver of innovations in the COTS components industry (just think of the image sensor development). However, these components are not designed to survive in harsh environments and need adapted packaging, so they can’t be used “as is” for New Space.

Q.- Is there any certification programmes from Alter Technology on space-related topics for students and engineers?
A.- Yes, we have MOOC on Radiation effects in Electronics
Q.– You seem to rely on third party certification with first article inspection, but how is this compatible with fast-changing component sources?
A.- The certifying party need to have a strong knowledge of the space sector and know which component suppliers can ensure availability of components, their obsolescence and replacement plans, the implications of these replacements, etc.
Q.- What is SRS?
A.- Shock Response Spectrum, shock tests.
Q.:- By component packaging do you mean dicing the wafer and packaging each of the dies? Or purchasing COTS components, unpacking them and repacking them?
A: In fact, both approaches are theoretically possible, although re-packaging COTS component needs extreme care because they can be damaged in the process.

During the webinar, the attendees answered a few questions. Here below, you can see the results.
