TL;DR: The first flight-packaged detector arrays that meet NIRSpec's challenging 6 e-rms total noise requirement are described in this article, where the authors focus on the measured performance of the first flight candidate and near-flight candidate detector arrays.
System Definition of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) Integrated Science Instrument Module (ISIM)
TL;DR: How the requirement flow has been coordinated through the documentation system, how the tools and processes are used to minimize impact to the development of the affected interfaces, and how the system design has matured are described to ensure a truly world class scientific instrument compliment is created as the final product.
