    Radiation-induced insulator discharge pulses in the CRRES Internal Discharge Monitor satellite experiment (1991)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-24
    Description: The Internal Discharge Monitor (IDM) is designed to observe electrical pulses from common electrical insulators in space service. The IDM is flying on the Combined Release and Radiation Effects Satellite (CRRES). The sixteen insulator samples include G10 circuit boards, FR4 and PTFE fiberglass circuit boards, FEP Teflon, alumina, and wires with common insulations. The samples are fully enclosed, mutually isolated, and space radiation penetrates 0.02 cm of aluminum before striking the samples. The IDM results indicate the rate at which insulator pulses occur. Pulsing began on the seventh orbit. The maximum pulse rate occurred near orbit 600 when over 50 pulses occurred. The average pulse rate is approximately two per orbit, but nearly half of the first 600 orbits experienced no pulses. The pulse rate per unit flux of high energy electrons has not changed dramatically over the first ten months in space. These pulse rates are in agreement with laboratory experience on shorter time scales. Several of the samples have never pulsed. IDM pulses are the seeds of larger satellite electrical anomalies. The pulse rates are compared with space radiation intensities, L shell location, and spectral distributions from the radiation spectrometers on CRRES.

    Environment-induced electrostatic discharges as the cause of Voyager 1 power-on resets (1986)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-19
    Description: The Pioneer and Voyager spacecraft all experienced anomalous behavior during their encounters with Jupiter. In particular, the Voyager 1 spacecraft experienced 42 electrical circuitry designed to protect the on-board computer from power fluctuations. Given the diversity of instrumentation and frequency of the anomalies observed by Voyager 1 in the inner magnetosphere of Jupiter, this set of data is particularly well suited as a case study. Although the nature of the anomalies clearly indicates a spacecraft-charging origin, the Voyager low-energy plasma data apparently imply absolute surface potentials of only a few tens of volts. It is thus difficult to explain the anomalies in terms of surface charging. The anomalies are, however, shown to be consistent with the hypothesis of internal charging of spacecraft parts and components.

    Galileo internal electrostatic discharge program (1985)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2016-06-07
    Description: The Galileo spacecraft which will orbit Jupiter in 1988 will encounter a very harsh environment of energetic electrons. These electrons will have sufficient energy to penetrate the spacecraft shielding, consequently depositing charges in the dielectric insulating materials or ungrounded conductors. The resulting electric field could exceed the breakdown strength of the insulating materials, producing discharges. The transients produced from these Internal Electrostatic Discharges (IESD) could, depending on their relative location, be coupled to nearby cables and circuits. These transients could change the state of logic circuits or degrade or even damage spacecraft components, consequently disrupting the operation of subsystems and systems of the Galileo spacecraft during its expected mission life. An extensive testing program was initiated for the purpose of understanding the potential threats associated with these IESD events. Data obtained from these tests were used to define design guidelines.

    FET charge sensor and voltage probe (1986)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: A MOSFET structure having a biased gate covered with an insulator is described. The insulator is of such a thickness as to render the structure capable of giving a measure of accumulated charge. The structure is also capable of being used in a stacked structure as a particle spectrometer.

    Anomalies due to single event upsets (1990)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: The description of single event upsets (SEUs) in the spacecraft Anomalies Handbook is reviewed. The basic mechanism involved in SEUs is summarized and discussed in terms of circuit analysis. Calculation of SEU rate is analytically described and discussed. Departures from single step function dependence in the SEU rate is addressed.

    Conduction through punctures in metal-backed dielectrics (1980)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2016-06-07
    Description: A theoretical mechanism to explain the main features of experiments with punctured spacecraft-thermal-blanket materials is presented. The model is based on consideration of the electric fields developed about punctures; the focusing of primary electrons toward the punctures; the generation, migration, and cascade of secondary electrons along the surface; and the radiation induced conductivity characteristics of thin dielectric films. Qualitative predictions of the model agree with experiment results

    Evaluation of charge control techniques on spacecraft thermal surfaces (electrostatic discharge study) (1980)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2016-06-07
    Description: The charging and discharging characteristics of various dielectric materials commonly used on spacecraft were tested. The experimental apparatus and the calculations used to analyze the data generated during the testing are described. The test technique, results, and analysis used are presented. Indium tin oxide coated Teflon, Kapton, and quartz do not charge significantly. CTL 15 white paint shows no large charge build up. Pinholes in Teflon and Kapton increase the leakage through the sample and reduce the energy released in an arc. Conductive grids in Teflon and Kapton reduce the arc energy by two orders of magnitude over untreated samples. Extreme low temperatures (-195 C) do not significantly increase the arc energy of the gridded sample.

    Pioneer Venus spacecraft charging model (1977)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Five environmental models were constructed to represent the solar wind and the upper, middle, and lower ionosphere of Venus. The spacecraft structure was modeled with over 140 passive electrical elements representing structural elements of the spacecraft. Electron, ion, secondary electron, and photocurrents to the spacecraft from the plasma were calculated, ignoring sheath effects. In all but one case, potentials of interest were less than 1 volt. Potential differences between widely separated points on the equipment shelf were less than 1 mV. The one area of concern is the solar panel potential when the orbiter is passing through the bowshock region.

    Electrostatic charging characteristics of thermal control paints as function of temperature (1980)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: The charging characteristics of paints for various uses on spacecraft under electron bombardment were studied. It was found that there is not a strong temperature dependence of the charging characteristics between -155 C and +30 C; and there is a noticeable hystereis effect as the electron beam energy is varied. Furthermore, all of the paints tested exhibit large secondary yields at low (approx. 1 keV) bombarding electron energies; and surfaces can charge either positively or negatively depending on the conditions and the paint. It was concluded that paints are not simple, will require more detailed study, and will probably act differently in multiple energy electron tests.
