Abstract

This paper summarizes and reports a radiation hardened spacecraft integrated circuit technology that has been delivered for flight applications to be flown on board the Cassini Spacecraft in 1997 AD. The multichip module has been designed to have an operating life of fifteen (15) years with appropriate derating guidelines for extreme reliability. It also has been designed to have the fail safe capability of unsurpassed quality and reliability
