Key Points
• Satellites operate in the toughest conditions,
so component selection is vital to create long-
term reliability.
• Choosing the right material matters even more
in space-based applications than in their
ground-based equivalents.
• Component efficiency and linearity are vital for
components in satellite applications to make
the best use of limited power and resources.
