BS ISO 21980:2020

This standard BS ISO 21980:2020 Space systems. Evaluation of radiation effects on Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) parts for use on low-orbit satellite is classified in these ICS categories:

• 49.140 Space systems and operations

This document outlines the evaluation methods for environmental tests that can be conducted on COTS (Commercial-Off-The-Shelf) spacecraft parts intended for use on LEO satellites. The radiation effects considered consist of total dosage, single event, and displacement damage. In addition, this document describes tests that are useful for satellites operating in LEO.
