Abstract: The Integrated Grid Particle Impact Detector (IGMID) uses an integrated semiconductor grid system to detect hypervelocity article impacts on space vehicles and to indirectly determine article diameter of impacting particles. The detector consists of multiple sets of parallel aluminum electrical paths. The first set of parallel aluminum electrical paths is located on the top surface of the detector. The second and subsequent sets are located some distance below the top surface of the detector with the paths being perpendicular and/or parallel to the first set of paths. When a particle traveling at hypervelocity impacts the detector one or more detector paths will be vaporized, resulting in an electrically open path. This in turn will result in the output of the n-type and p-type CMOS circuits to change state. Using standard CMOS VLSI design techniques, specific electrically open grid paths can be identified.
