Title:
Digital Tracker Array Radiation Test Report
Report Date:
2021-01-20
Abstract:
For the Digital Tracker Array (DTA) program, there were some unique concerns and constraints, which needed to be addressed. The primary component of this design was a hybrid sensor based on the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Lincoln Laboratory (MIT LL) Digital-pixel Focal Plane Array (DFPA) which was bump-bonded to InGaAs short wave band infrared detectors. Though used successfully in ground experiments, its space capability was an open question. In particular, the CMOS-based design and its susceptibility to radiation was unknown. Further, because the design of the package was extremely size, weight, and power constrained, radiation mitigation could become a problem (BISA, Belgian Institute for Space Aeronomy, 2019).
