One platform for component characterization.
Orbital Veritas brings together component-family characterization, radiation campaigns, approved test boards, evidence packages, and longitudinal date-code history into one structured platform for the New Space ecosystem.
The platform is designed to help engineering teams understand what has been tested, how it was tested, which date codes have been characterized, and how evidence evolves over time.
Rather than prescribing technology choices, Orbital Veritas focuses on generating, organizing, and expanding radiation evidence for commercially relevant semiconductor technologies.
Through independent campaigns and recurring characterization activities, the platform creates a growing body of knowledge that can be explored, reviewed, and built upon by the wider New Space community.
Radiation evidence is fragmented.
New Space programmes increasingly evaluate commercial, industrial, and automotive-grade semiconductor technologies because they offer attractive combinations of performance, availability, innovation, and manufacturing scale.
However, radiation evidence often develops much more slowly than the technologies themselves. Many component families have little publicly available characterization data, and existing evidence may be scattered across many different sources.
Orbital Veritas exists to help organize and expand this evidence base so engineering teams can see what has been characterized, which date codes have been tested, and where known limitations have already been documented.
By combining approved test boards, independent radiation campaigns, structured evidence publication, and recurring date-code characterization, the platform creates a growing body of knowledge that can be explored, reviewed, and built upon by the wider New Space ecosystem.
Engineering teams need to answer
- Has this component family been characterized before?
- Which date codes have been tested?
- What campaign history exists?
- How much evidence is available today?
- How has characterization evolved over time?
- What limitations are already known?
Four connected platform
modules.
Each module represents a different stage of the characterization lifecycle. Together they create a structured framework for generating, organizing, and expanding radiation evidence for commercially relevant semiconductor component families.
The modules are connected so users can move from component-family records to campaign history, evidence packages, approved test boards, and characterization history without rebuilding context.
Component Evidence Database
A structured database of component families, manufacturers, radiation campaigns, tested date codes, evidence packages, and known limitations.
The database documents what has been characterized and how evidence has evolved over time.
Rather than recommending technologies, it provides a transparent record of available evidence.
Radiation Campaign Pipeline
A transparent view of component-family programmes, approved test boards, planned campaigns, active testing, completed campaigns, and future characterization activities.
Follow how evidence is generated and how characterization history expands across the New Space ecosystem.
Evidence Packages
Structured technical evidence containing campaign records, tested date codes, test conditions, observed effects, characterization history, and known limitations.
Designed to make radiation characterization data accessible, traceable, and reusable.
Longitudinal Evidence
Track how component-family evidence develops across multiple campaigns, manufacturing periods, and date codes.
Build visibility into consistency, variation, process evolution, and evidence maturity as characterization history grows.
A structured path from component family to evidence.
Orbital Veritas follows a repeatable methodology for generating, expanding, and maintaining radiation evidence for commercially relevant semiconductor technologies. The process is designed to create reusable characterization history that grows over time through additional campaigns and date-code expansion.
Nominate a component family
A semiconductor manufacturer, New Space company, research organization, or Orbital Veritas analyst identifies a component family for characterization.
Candidate families may include interface devices, power conversion parts, regulators, converters, memories, timing devices, sensors, or other commercially relevant technologies used in New Space systems.
Develop a characterization board
A reference test board is developed using manufacturer application expertise and documented according to Orbital Veritas characterization requirements.
The board is intended to provide a repeatable foundation for evidence generation, so future campaigns can build on a consistent test setup instead of creating isolated one-off results.
Approve the board
Orbital Veritas reviews the board against a standardized methodology focused on traceability, repeatability, measurement quality, and documentation completeness.
Board approval means the setup is suitable for structured characterization activity. It does not imply that the component family itself has been approved or recommended.
Execute radiation campaigns
Approved boards enter structured radiation campaigns selected according to component type, expected use case, and relevant radiation effects.
Campaigns may evaluate total ionizing dose, single-event effects, latchup, upsets, transients, displacement damage, parametric drift, or other behaviors where technically appropriate.
Publish evidence
Campaign results are transformed into structured evidence packages and added to the Component Evidence Database.
Evidence records document campaign history, tested date codes, test conditions, observed effects, and known limitations so the characterization basis remains traceable.
Expand characterization over time
Additional campaigns can characterize new date codes, manufacturing revisions, and future production lots as the component family continues to evolve.
This creates longitudinal evidence that improves understanding of component-family behavior across time and helps teams distinguish consistency, variation, and process change.
Built for organizations that rely on evidence.
Orbital Veritas supports organizations that need independent radiation characterization, campaign history, and longitudinal evidence for commercially relevant semiconductor technologies.
The platform helps create a shared evidence foundation across the New Space ecosystem.
