Description
System-level tests play a significant role in electronic devices' qualification and in combination with the component-level testing gives a more precise understanding of their behavior in the harsh radiation environment. They are especially relevant in the case of accelerators, where highly complex systems are employed and a high degree of reliability is imposed. System-level tests must therefore be embedded in the equipment design process, and be a part of a more comprehensive Radiation Hardness Assurance procedure. In view of the recently released RADSAGA System-level Radiation Testing Guideline for Space Systems, the nuances of the development of an equivalent document for accelerator equipment are explored.
