우주 환경에서의 Worst Case Analysis에 대한 소개와 응용 예

In the space environment, many other things to design electronic circuits should be considered with respect to commercial circuit design. The first thing is that electronics in space are likely to be exposed to radiation effects and the second thing is that it is impossible to repair or replace electronic parts after once spacecraft was launched, in this severe situation, very strict and tight worst case analysis conditions should be applied to the electronics in space environment to do its own function well without any problems during the overall mission period. So this paper summarizes worst case input conditions and methods which are specified in the ESA Worst Case Analysis Specification (ECSS-Q-30-01A) and proposes the results of Worst Case Analysis for one simple electronic circuit which is implemented at a real On-Board Computer in the Low Earth Orbit Satellite.
