  • Abstract
    As part of National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)/Goddard Space Flight Center´s (GSFC) efforts in supporting spaceflight qualification for multiple programs, single event effect (SEE) characterization of various DC-DC power converters as well as a solid-state power controller (SSPC) was undertaken. The implications of these test results are further discussed
