ILPM & Established COTS List

The following is a list of Industry Leading Parts Manufacturers (ILPMs) and corresponding "Established COTS Parts", as defined by the NASA Engineering and Safety Center (NESC) Technical Assessment Phase II Report on Recommendations on the Use of Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) Electrical, Electronic, and Electromechanical (EEE) Parts for NASA Missions (NASA/TM-20220018183). NASA has developed a relationship with the manufacturer to obtain company and product information that verifies the manufacturer and specified product line meet the general criteria outlined in the NESC recommendations. The information contained herein is presented for guidance to projects when considering usage of these products in space applications. The guidance does not distinguish between critical or non-critical systems, and a given project will need to apply appropriate measures when utilizing these parts based on their risk posture. Users are advised to request similar documentation to the extent necessary to determine part reliability is acceptable based on the project's Mission, Environment, Application, and Lifetime (MEAL) requirements.

Note: part tolerance to ionizing radiation is not a part of the ILPM assessment process. Neither the United States Government (USG) nor any person acting on behalf of the USG assumes any liability resulting from the use of the information contained herein.
