Abstract
This paper illustrates through the example of a hardened absolute digital converter, one way to meet the accuracy and hardening requirements of the nuclear robotics field. The method consists in performing iterations until a trade-off is found between architecture choices and devices choices, in order to achieve a given hardening level. The system is found to be still functional after 150 kGy. Such a method can be applied to other equipments used in nuclear robotics
