Abstract :
Comprehensive tests are being performed to identify if the Dallas DS18B20 smart digital temperature sensor is (i) a potential solution for temperature monitoring during in-situ gamma irradiation tests and (ii) a suitable candidate for commercial low cost space applications. This work presents and discusses an applied test methodology for total ionising dose (TID) irradiation using a cobalt-60 gamma source. Preliminary test results are also published in this paper.
