The fast neutron production was carried out with MeV protons on a lithium target. The modulation of the target thickness and proton current and energy allows for the production of neutron beams for DDD and SEE tests.

The design of radiation tolerant mixed-signal circuits is confronted with either RHBD transistors that are not supported by the foundry monitoring and modelling or the inaccurate estimate of the radiation effects of the foundry supported devices. A test-vehicle has been created that includes for all the DARE180U technology devices types and channel geometries test structures to capture the electrical characterisation of the TID radiation response. The results of the measurements are presented and do allow a more accurate estimate of the TID radiation response for the mixed-signal circuits in the DARE180U technology. Furthermore, the wealth of data obtained would enable accurate modelling of the radiation TID effects in these devices.

In search of alternative solutions for Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) that can withstand the higher dose levels foreseen in the upcoming upgrades of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), a new Radiation Hardened FPGA is targeted. More specifically, in this work, the effects of proton induced radiation on a 65nm Rad Hard SRAM-Based FPGA are investigated, while applying tailored tests for each resource of the FPGA. The results of the study are then used to perform a Reliability analysis of this device, adapted to the CERN radiation environment while using standard models.

The effect of dose on NPN bipolar transistors is investigated for irradiation performed at low temperatures. Degradation of forward-Gummel curves and current gain is shown. After a low temperature irradiation there is two possible case. For irradiation temperature of 250K and above, there is no effect induced by the low temperature irradiation. For irradiation temperature of 225K and below a reduce current gain can be obtained for low Vbe.

The radiation qualification of a complex space system made out of multiple commercial electronic components and modules is a non-standardized task with certain limitations, but also wide potentialities. This paper delves into the features of a system-level test methodologies and explains how to use the data retrieved with a mixed-field characterization. Lesson learned concepts can be applied to the the system level irradiation test preparation as well as the actual application.
