Claim 0:
1. A method comprising:
obtaining a base housing for electronic components, the base housing being configured to attenuate radiation entering the base housing by a base amount, wherein an inner volume of the base housing defined by an inner surface of the base housing experiences attenuated radiation; and
affixing one or more inserts to the inner surface of the base housing to further attenuate the attenuated radiation in corresponding one or more areas of the inner volume by shielding one or more of the electronic components in the one or more areas of the inner volume from a total ionizing dose (TID) and total nonionizing dose (TNID) of radiation caused by interaction with radiation particles;
wherein a thickness of one of the one or more inserts is different than a thickness of another one of the one or more inserts to provide different shielding in different locations of the base housing and the thicknesses are based on a desired amount of radiation shielding in a particular location.
