Abstract :
Experimental conditions have been established to achieve Radiation Verification Tests on non-hardened ICs. A realistic and conservative hardness evaluation of these devices has been carried out using a low dose rate irradiation and a 168 h/100°C annealing procedure. Most of the device types satisfied the conditions for a 20 krad application but a “super rebound” exceeding the maximum values ever seen appeared on one device type
