Abstract :
Commercial deep submicron (< 0.25 micron) CMOS technology exhibits excellent total dose hardness. National Semiconductor LVDS serializer and deserializer circuits, manufactured in this process, were tested to over 115 krd(Si) and 65 krd(Si) respectively, without failure. Testing proved to challenge traditional test techniques, as these parts ran at parallel data rates up to 40 MHz
