NASA Parts
Selection List
3.0
USING THIS DOCUMENT
The NPSL has been
structured into four primary sections to facilitate finding the information
of interest:
The Parts Listings
by Commodity Type Sections contains the actual part selection listings.
The part types which will be covered in the NPSL consist of advanced
packaging technologies such as MCMs and the commodities defined as electrical,
electronic, and electromechanical (EEE) parts. The commodity types are
listed below according to the Federal Stock Classification (FSC) system.
Within
each commodity class the parts are listed in order by procurement specifications
in existence as NASA, DoD, or other space agency (e.g. ESA or NASDA) specifications.
The part listing for each specification begins with a detailed explanation
of the part numbering system. These explanations and the part listings
which follow help the user "build" the appropriate part number for the
project application. General functional descriptions and generic part
number cross-references are provided to assist the user in matching functionality.
The part quality levels, radiation tolerance levels (if known), and the
available manufacturer sources are also identified.
Although
extensive efforts have been made to maintain the accuracy of the supplier
information within the part listings, users are encouraged to visit the
Defense Supply Center Columbus (DSCC), http://www.dscc.dla.mil/programs/qmlqpl/.
DSCC is the Department of Defense agency responsible for certifying suppliers
of military specification EEE parts. At this site, users can download
the latest Qualified Products List (QPL) for the part type of interest.
