IEC TS 62396-1:2006 Process management for avionics - Atmospheric radiation effects - Part 1: Accommodation of atmospheric radiation effects via single event effects within avionics electronic equipment
This Technical Specification is intended to provide guidance on Atmospheric Radiation effects
on Avionics electronics used in aircraft operating at altitudes up to 60 000 feet (18,3 km). It
defines the radiation environment, the effects of that environment on electronics and provides
design considerations for the accommodation of those effects within avionics systems.
This Technical Specification is intended to help aerospace equipment manufacturers and
designers to standardise their approach to Single Event Effects in Avionics by providing
guidance, leading to a standard methodology.
Details of the radiation environment are provided together with identification of potential
problems caused as a result of the atmospheric radiation received. Appropriate methods are
given for quantifying Single Event Effect (SEE) rates in electronic components. The overall
system safety methodology should be expanded to accommodate the Single Event Effects
rates and to demonstrate the suitability of the electronics for the application at the component
and system level.
