RADHARD Ready COTS products will provide an alternative to today’s costly radiation hardened products that are designed to meet the most extreme and highest levels of radiation exposure. RADHARD Ready products will address the large percentage of today’s applications that can be satisfactorily addressed, with a lesser range of radiation tolerance, through the use of significantly less costly COTS components. CWCEC’s RADHARD Ready initiative will define and drive the development of cost effective RADHARD Ready COTS boards and subsystems that are tolerant to radiation survival and continue to function. Curtiss-Wright is leading the embedded military market in bringing the long-proven benefits of COTS product design to the demanding radiation tolerant market. Through sophisticated component selection, testing and evaluation this will enable customers to meet their application requirements faster and with significant savings with radiation resilient RADHARD Ready COTS board solutions.
