This thesis explores the feasibility of using 3D NAND flash memory as space radiation monitor. Space radiation is composed by ionizing particles such as protons and ions, which can be harmful to electronics. Shielding and Error Correcting Code can be implemented to counteract these effects. Monitoring
the space radiation environment is necessary to better understand the space radiation environment and design shielding and ECC according to the exposed dose of a spacecraft during its mission. Following the trend of miniaturization, using 3D NAND flash technology will drive down the cost of a radiation monitor. This allows for space radiation monitors which can be used on small satellites such as a picosatellites.
