1. Introduction
This report reports the results of a low and high dose rate total dose test of the ISL7124SRH
quad operational amplifier. The test was conducted in order to determine the sensitivity of the part
to the total dose environment and to determine if dose rate and bias sensitivity exist.

3: Part Description
The single-event radiation hardened ISL7124SRH consists of four independent internally frequency
compensated operational amplifiers, specifically designed to operate from a single power supply
over a wide range of voltages. The device is functionally equivalent to industry standard 124 types,
offering improvements in supply current and power supply rejection ratio.
Constructed with Intersil's dielectrically isolated, radiation hardened silicon gate (RSG) BiCMOS
process, this device is immune to single event latchup. Additionally, the design has been hardened
to prevent single event transients (SETs) in excess of 1V for LETs up to 36MeV/mg/cm2.
The ISL7124SRH has been specifically designed and manufactured to provide reliable performance
in harsh radiation environments. It is total dose hardened to 300krad(Si) at high dose rate and
offers guaranteed performance over the full -55oC to +125oC military temperature range.
Specifications for Rad Hard QML devices are controlled by the Defense Supply Center in Columbus
(DSCC). The SMD numbers listed here must be used when ordering. Detailed electrical
specifications for this device are contained in SMD 5962-02542. A "hot-link" is provided on the
Intersil website for downloading.

4: Test Description
4.1 Irradiation Facilities
High dose rate testing was performed using a Gammacell 220 60Co irradiator located in the
Palm Bay, Florida Intersil facility. Low dose rate testing was performed on a subcontract basis at
White Sands Missile Range (WSMR) Survivability, Vulnerability and Assessment Directorate
(SVAD), White Sands, NM, using a vault-type 60Co irradiator. The high dose rate irradiations were
done at 55rad(Si)/s and the low dose rate work was performed at 0.010rad(Si)/s, both per MIL-STD883 Method 1019.7. Dosimetry for both tests was performed using Far West Technology
radiochromic dosimeters and readout equipment.
4.2 Test Fixturing
Figure 2 shows the configuration used for biased irradiation in conformance with Standard
Microcircuit Drawing (SMD) 5962-02542.

(SMD) 5962-02542.
4.3 Characterization equipment and procedures
All electrical testing was performed outside the irradiator using the production automated test
equipment (ATE) with datalogging at each downpoint. Downpoint electrical testing was performed
at room temperature. Performing low dose rate testing at a remote site introduces some challenges,
and shipping had to be done in a foam container with a frozen Gelpack™ along with a strip chart
temperature recorder in order to remain well within the temperature limits imposed by MIL-STD-883
Test Method 1019.7. Close coordination between the two organizations is required, and support by
WSMR is gratefully acknowledged.

4.4 Experimental matrix
Total dose irradiations proceeded in accordance with the guidelines of MIL-STD-883 Test
Method 1019.7. The experimental matrix consisted of five samples irradiated at high dose rate with
all pins grounded, five samples irradiated at high dose rate under bias, five samples irradiated at
low dose rate with all pins grounded and five samples irradiated at low dose rate under bias. One
control unit was used.
Samples of the ISL7124SRH die were drawn from wafer 3 of production lot DCR6TFA and
were packaged in the standard hermetic 14-pin solder-sealed flatpack (CDFP4-F14) production
package. Samples were processed through the standard burnin cycle before irradiation, as required
by MIL-STD-883, and were screened to the SMD 5962-02542 limits at room, low and high
temperatures prior to the test.
4.5 Downpoints
Downpoints for the tests were zero, 50krad(Si), 100krad(Si) and 150krad(Si) for the high dose
rate test and zero, 10krad(Si), 25krad(Si), 50krad(Si), 100krad(Si), 125krad(Si) and 150krad(Si) for
the low dose rate test.
5: Results
5.1 Test results
Testing at both dose rates to 150krad(Si) of the ISL7124SRH is complete.
The part was found to be dose rate sensitive, with unbiased low dose rate irradiation worst case
as expected. The input offset voltage was outside the +/-10mV SMD post-irradiation specification at
the 100krad(Si) downpoint. The positive input bias current was close to the +/-400nA postirradiation limit at the 125krad(Si) downpoint but recovered somewhat at 150krad(Si). The cause of
the bias current degradation is considered to be the gradually degradation of the current gain
(‘beta’) of the input PNP transistor pair. The negative input bias current was outside the +/-400nA
limit after 125krad(Si). The input offset current remained very stable, indicating that the input pair
current gain remains well-matched in spite of the degradation in absolute value.
Open-loop voltage gain was outside the 20V/mV (86dB) minimum limit at the 100krad(Si)
downpoint. Common-mode rejection ratio data for Channel 3 was of doubtful quality, as was the
positive and negative slew rate data for Channels 2 and 4. We have plotted this anomalous data for
information only.
The part is considered low dose rate sensitive but remains within the SMD post-irradiation limits
to a maximum of 50krad(Si) in this environment. Similarly, we observed some bias sensitivity in the
low dose rate results.
5.2 Variables data
The plots in Figures 3 through 59 show data at all downpoints. The plots show the median of
key parameters as a function of total dose for each of the four irradiation conditions. We chose to
plot the median for these parameters due to the relatively small sample sizes.

6: Conclusion
This document reports results of a total dose test of the ISL7124SRH quad operational
amplifier. Parts were tested at low and high dose rate under biased and unbiased conditions as
outlined in MIL-STD-883 Test Method 1019.7, to a maximum total dose of 150krad(Si).
The part was found to be dose rate sensitive, with unbiased low dose rate irradiation worst case
as expected. The input offset voltage was outside the +/-10mV SMD post-irradiation specification at
the 100krad(Si) downpoint. The positive input bias current was close to the +/-400nA postirradiation limit at the 125krad(Si) downpoint but recovered somewhat at 150krad(Si). The cause of
the bias current degradation is considered to be the gradually degradation of the gain (‘beta’) of the
input PNP transistor pair. The negative input bias current was outside the +/-400nA limit after
125krad(Si). The input offset current remained very stable, indicating that the input pair gain
remains well-matched in spite of the degradation in absolute value.
Open-loop voltage gain was outside the 20V/mV (86dB) limit at the 100krad(Si) downpoint.
Common-mode rejection ratio data for Channel 3 was of doubtful quality, as was the positive and
negative slew rate data for Channels 2 and 4. We have plotted this anomalous data for information
only.
The part is considered low dose rate sensitive but remains within the SMD post-irradiation limits
to a maximum of 50krad(Si) in this environment. Similarly, we observed some bias sensitivity in the
low dose rate results.
