Lessons Learned - High-voltage Capacitor Used in Voltage Doubler Circuits for Space Applications (~1978)
Year: 1996
Abstract: Abstract:
Voyager circuit design verification showed that capacitors that were appropriate for use at atmospheric pressures, contained voids that could lead to corona and possible failure in space. This deficiency might not have shown up during testing. The possibility of critical pressure must be eliminated from all circuit parts capable of causing corona or arcing. Testing should not be relied on to catch all design weaknesses.
