This standard defines the requirements for selection, control, procurement and
usage of EEE commercial components for space projects.
This standard is applicable to commercial parts from the following families:
• Ceramic capacitors chips
• Solid electrolyte tantalum capacitors chips
• Discrete parts (transistors, diodes, optocouplers)
• Fuses
• Magnetic parts
• Microcircuits
• Resistors chips
• Thermistors
In addition for families of EEE components not addressed by the present ECSS
standard, it can be used as guideline on case by case basis.
The requirements of this document are applicable to all parties involved at all
levels in the integration of EEE commercial components into space segment
hardware and launchers.
This standard may be tailored for the specific characteristics and constrains of a
space project in conformance with ECSS-S-ST-00.
