The Japanese Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) uses monitors on board satellites to measure and record in-flight data about ionization effects in space. A compact, total-dose measurement system for small satellites—Space-Oriented Higashiosaka Leading Association -1 (SOHLA-1) and Small Demonstration-Satellite -1 (SDS-1)—was developed based on a prior system for measuring total ionizing dose effects. Especially, the sensor for SDS-1 is much smaller than the sensor for SOHLA-1. The sensor for SDS-1 is 8 mm wide × 3 mm high × 19 mm long and weighs approximately 4 g with 500 mm with its wire harness. An 8-pin Lead less Chip Carrier (LCC) RADFET and temperature sensor are arranged on it. Seven sensors are mounted on some components inside the SDS-1. The sensor for SOHLA-1 is a 14-pin Dual Inline Package (DIP) type RADFET. The four sensors, which have RADFET on a printed board covered with an aluminum chassis, are mounted both inside and outside the satellite. This report presents small total dose measurement systems and ground irradiation test results for two small satellites.
