Topic: NOAA-18 SEM TED Proton and Electron Bias Voltage IncreaseDetails/Specifics
of Change:
Janet Green of the National
Geophysical Data Center has requested Engineering to increase
the N18 SEM TED proton and electron bias voltages by one
count. This periodic change in the bias voltage is part
of the
normal operations of SEM and is not an indication of any
problems. As the
detectors age, it is important to increase the bias
voltage to
compensate for reduced sensitivity. This increase will
improve
the performance of the SEM TED
sensors.
NOAA-18 SEM TED proton and
electron bias voltages will be changed to level 6 during the
following pass: 13 March 2014 (14/072) 20:44
UTC – 20:58 UTC.
