Abstract

The Sensors and Electronic Instrumentation Group of the University Complutense of Madrid has developed a system to emulate the cosmic radiations effects on electronic devices by LASER irradiations. Of great interest to the nuclear industry and space electronics, this project was carried out partially supported by the company ALTER SPAIN S.A., specialized in engineering, quality management and testing of high reliability electronic components for space applications.
