A high-bandwidth LVDS Transmitter (TX) has been proposed for redundant parallel connection of semiconductor devices in cold-spare systems. The cold-spare configuration is widely adopted for secure system operation of artificial satellite exposed to highly-radiated environment. For applying to the configuration in radiation hardened application, the LVDS-TX has i) off-chip driver consisting of only NMOS transistors to enhance latch-up immunity, ii) replica biasing for common mode voltage stabilization independently to off-chip loading, iii) multiple guard ring between large NMOS and N-Well areas. The proposed LVDS-TX has been fabricated by using bulk I/O and SOI core transistors in a 65 nm FDSOI process. Measurement results show over-500Mbit/sec stable data communication, and remarkable suppression of BER (Bit Error Rate) degradation compared to commercial device under ${}^{84}text{Kr}^{17+}$ exposure of 322.0 MeV at flux of over 5x105 count/cm2/s.

In this paper SEL cross sections were calculated from TCAD simulations varying doping profiles, anode-to-cathode spacing and substrate and well taps placement values. We found that doping profiles and substrate and well taps placement variation has a stronger impact on SEL sensitivity then variation of anode to cathode spacing.

Korea Multi-purpose Accelerator Complex (KOMAC) has been operating 20 MeV and 100 MeV proton beam lines to provide proton beams for various applications since 2013. A new beam line with low-flux proton densities was constructed and started beam service to user for simulation of the space radiation-like environment since 2018. The new beam line can provide a very low flux of 105 #/cm2/pulse, good uniformity within ± 10% and a large beam area with a wide range of proton energies. Recently, the irradiation room of the low-flux beam line has been upgraded with new beam diagnostics instruments and new control interface for improving the efficiency of the beam tuning process and for improving beam quality assurance. In this study, the details on the upgrade in the low flux proton irradiation room at KOMAC will be given.

In the domain of imaging in harsh environments, adding antireflection coatings on lenses increases the flux on the sensor and minimizes the ghost images. However, the radiation can influence the performances of these coatings. In this paper, we studied such effects on commercially available antireflection coatings, up to the total ionizing dose of 1 MGy(SiO2). Online radiation-induced attenuation measurements highlight slight differences between uncoated and coated samples that are not clearly observable in post-mortem transmission and reflection spectra. We also report photoluminescence spectra.
