Abstract :
We have irradiated radiation-hard 64K CMOS Static RAMs in a 60Co pool at dose rates of 3 and 70 Rads-(SiO2)/sec to simulate a space radiation environment. The devices failed due to write-failure at a total gamma dose in some cases greater than 50 MRads(SiO2). Test Transistors were also irradiated and measured.
