Parts Engineering and Product Assurance service: Adittional Services

ALTER has developed the capabilities to perform the necessary analysis and calculations required for the multiple reviews

• Calculation of radiation environment and radiation analysis using,
  • OMERE (TRAD Software)
  • CREME96
  • SPENVIS
  • FASTRAD ® (TRAD Software). Ray-tracing (Reverse and Forward Montecarlo)
  • Others: FLUKA, SRIM, EXPACS
• Standard Outputs required by users:
  • TID and TNID Dose Septh Curves, GCR and Solar Flare Heavy Ion Environments, Solar Flare Proton Environments, etc
  • Radiation Design Margins, SEE rate calculation and shielding analysis

With more than 35 years in radiation testing, ALTER has accumulated hundreds of test campaigns with thousands of accumulated radiation experience in:

• I.D. (Total Ionizing Dose), at EEE part level or PCB/unit level at RADLAC facilities in Seville
• E.E. (Single Event Effects), like SEU, SEL, SET, SEB, SEFI, SEGR, SEDR, mainly in RADEF, UCL, GANIL and PSI
• Proton and neutron testing for S.E.E. and D.D. (Displacement Damage)
• Laser Testing for characterization,
• Alternative testing (CHARM, HEARTS, proton at PCB level….)
