Total ionizing dose and single event effects testing was performed on 4 Gb NAND flash die used in DDC's 69F24G24 flash NAND devices. If the data is regularly refreshed, the devices show good resistance to corrupted bits during total dose irradiation. In the case of heavy ion irradiation, multi-bit upsets could prove problematic to some error correction schemes.

Assessing electronic systems regarding ionizing radiation is often costly and requires complex facilities capable of generating the ionizing radiation, and highly qualified human resources to fulfill all the requirements for the radiation tests. This work proposes a fast and low-cost setup to evaluate soft errors on digital programmable systems owing to Single Event Effects caused by ionizing radiation. Alpha particle sources allows to test these systems on a fast and simple procedure, with the advantage of evaluating also the system's sensitivity to ionizing radiation.

Neutron fields are created inside and outside the vault as byproducts of radioisotope production of the 70 MeV cyclotron at Zevacor Molecular Inc. Neutron energy distribution measurements were obtained for a 10 μΑ accelerator proton beam incident on a Rb/Ga target using the Nested Neutron Spectrometer. The neutron fluence rate at a 30 cm diameter conduit outside of the vault reached 3.95×104 cm−2 s−1 and was measured to be 7.68×107 cm−2 s−1 inside the vault at a distance of 1 m from the target. Neutron output is expected to be approximately 20 times greater during routine operational conditions (200 μΑ). Inside the vault, the spectrum showed features similar to theoretical models and may provide a useful environment to test space-bound electronics.

The major contribution to the Total Ionizing Dose (TID) damage to EEE components to be flown in the ESA JUICE mission to the Jovian system comes from the electron radiation belts of Jupiter and of its moons. However, standard testing of TID degradation of EEE components is performed with 60Co gammas. In this work the representativity of 60Co testing for the Jovian electron environment was tested by comparing TID degradation of selected EEE components when irradiated with 60Co gammas and with electron beams with energy above 10 MeV. In order to perform this verification, typical components used in space systems were irradiated at different facilities, under different conditions with High Dose Rate (HDR) and Low Dose Rate (LDR) 60Co gammas and with 12 MeV and 20 MeV electrons beams up to 100 krad (water). Key parameters of each component were measured before, during (every 20 krad) and after irradiation. The results obtained show no significant sensitivity to radiation type in all components tested. Furthermore, results achieved (the annealing measurement phase is still ongoing) confirm that 60Co testing is representative of the expected response to TID of the five tested component types to be flown in JUICE.

Embedded Compiled SRAMs are included as part of the Cobham 130nm Radiation Hardened ASIC design environment. Previous testing of the Cobham 130nm library was performed at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and is reported in the following references [1]–[4]. This work describes additional characterization of two architectures of compiled embedded SRAMs in heavy ion and proton environments. Heavy ion testing was performed at the Texas A&M University Cyclotron Institute (TAMU) and proton testing was performed at the TRI-University Meson Facility (TRIUMF).
