Table 3. Single Event Effects
Radiation Performance of Rad Hard HEXFETs
International Rectifier Radiation Hardened HEXFETs
are tested to verify their hardness capability. The hard-
ness assurance program at International Rectifier com
prises three radiation environments.
Every manufacturing lot is tested in a low dose rate (to-
tal dose) environment per MIL-STD-750, test method
1019 condition A. International Rectifier has imposed a
standard gate condition of -12 volts per note 5 and a
V
bias condition equal to 80% of the device rated
voltage per note 6. Pre- and post- irradiation limits of
the devices irradiated to 1 x 10
5
Rads (Si) are identical
and are presented in Table1,column1, IRHN9250.Post-
irradiation limits of the devices irradiated to 3 x 10
5
Rads(Si) are presented in Table1,column2, IRHN93250.
The values in Table 1 will be met for either of the two low
dose rate test circuits that are used. Both pre- and
post-irradiation performance are tested and specified
using the same drive circuitry and test conditions in
order to provide a direct comparison. It should be
noted that at a radiation level of 3 x 10
5
Rads (Si) the
only parametric limit change is V
GS(th)
maximum.
High dose rate testing may be done on a special re-
quest basis using a dose rate up to 1 x 10
12
Rads
(Si)/Sec (See Table 2). International Rectifier radia-
tion hardened P-Channel HEXFETs are considered
to be neutron-tolerant, as stated in MIL-PRF-19500
Group D.
International Rectifier radiation hardened P-Channel
HEXFETs have been characterized in heavy ion
Single Event Effects (SEE) environments. Single
Event Effects characterization is shown in Table 3.
