Total Dose Radiation Test Report MSK5970KRH RAD Hard Positive Voltage Regulator May 14, 2009 (TID - First Test, WAFER LOT: 46233.3W#8) Updated July 10, 2010 July 16, 2010 (TID – Second Test, WAFER LOT: 550635.2W#4) June 14, 2013 (TID – Third Test, WAFER LOT: W10913024.1W#19) B. Horton C. Salce P. Dinneen M.S. Kennedy Corporation Liverpool, NY Page 1 of 21 I. Introduction: The total dose radiation test plan for the MSK5970KRH series was developed to qualify the devices as RAD Hard to 100 KRADS(Si). The testing was performed beyond 100 KRADS(Si) to show trends in device performance as a function of total dose. The test does not classify maximum radiation tolerance of the device, but simply offers designers insight to the critical parameter-shifts up to the specified total dose level. MIL-STD-883 Method 1019.7 and ASTM F1892-06 were used as guidelines in the development and implementation of the total dose test plan for the MSK5970KRH series. II. Radiation Source: Total dose was performed at the University of Massachusetts, Lowell, using a cobalt 60 radiation source. The dose rate was determined to be 93 Rads(Si)/sec. The total dose schedule can be found in Table I. III. Test Setup: All test samples were subjected to Group A Electrical Test in accordance with the device data sheet. In addition, all devices received 320 hours of burn-in per MIL-STD-883 Method 1015 and were fully screened IAW MIL-PRF-38534 Class K. For test platform verification, one control device was tested at 25C. Ten devices were then tested at 25°C, prior to irradiation, and were found to be within acceptable test limits. The devices were vertically aligned with the radiation source and enclosed in a lead/aluminum container during irradiation. Five devices were kept under bias during irradiation. Maximum recommended operating voltage of +25 Volts was used for the bias condition. Five devices had all leads grounded during irradiation for the unbiased condition. After each irradiation, the device leads were shorted together and the devices were transported to the MSK automatic electrical test platform. Testing was performed in accordance with the MSK device data sheet. Testing was performed on irradiated devices, as well as the control device, at each total dose level. Electrical tests were completed within one hour of irradiation. Devices were subjected to subsequent radiation doses within two hours of removal from the radiation field. IV. Data: All performance curves are averaged from the test results of the biased and unbiased devices, respectively. If required, full test data can be obtained by contacting M.S. Kennedy Corporation. V. Summary: The reference voltage decreased an average of -0.8% up to the maximum specified dose but remained well with specification. All other parameters exhibited slight shifts with irradiation and remained well within specification through 150Krad(Si) TID.

The testing was performed beyond 100 KRADS(Si) to show trends in device performance as a function of total dose. The test does not classify maximum radiation tolerance of the device, but simply offers designers insight to the critical parameter-shifts up to the specified total dose level. The MSK5970KRH and the MSK5970KRHL use the same active component. The data in this report is from direct measurement of both the MSK5970KRH and MSK5970KRHL and indicates the similarity of the response of both device types. MIL-STD-883 Method 1019.7 and ASTM F1892-06 were used as guidelines in the development and implementation of the total dose test plan for the MSK5970KRH series. II. Radiation Source: Total dose was performed at the University of Massachusetts, Lowell, using a cobalt 60 radiation source. The dose rate was determined to be 135 Rads(Si)/sec. The total dose schedule can be found in Table I. III. Test Setup: All test samples were subjected to Group A Electrical Test in accordance with the device data sheet. In addition, all devices received 320 hours of burn-in per MIL-STD-883 Method 1015 and were fully screened IAW MIL-PRF-38534 Class K.

The devices were vertically aligned with the radiation source and enclosed in a lead/aluminum container during irradiation. Five devices of both device types were kept under bias during irradiation. Maximum recommended operating voltage of +25 Volts was used for the bias condition. For the MSK5970KRH, five devices had all leads grounded during irradiation for the unbiased condition. For the MSK5970KRHL, four devices had leads grounded for the unbiased condition After each irradiation, the device leads were shorted together and the devices were transported to the MSK automatic electrical test platform. Testing was performed in accordance with the MSK device data sheet. Testing was performed on irradiated devices, as well as the control device, at each total dose level. Electrical tests were completed within one hour of irradiation. Devices were subjected to subsequent radiation doses within two hours of removal from the radiation field. IV. Data: All performance curves are averaged from the test results of the biased and unbiased devices, respectively. If required, full test data can be obtained by contacting M.S. Kennedy Corporation. V. Summary: Reference voltage exhibited the most significant shifts due to irradiation. The reference voltage decreased with each successive dose. Reference voltage shift for both device types was typically less than 1% at 100Krad(Si) and less than 2% at 200Krad(Si). Dropout voltage showed a slight increase, but also stayed within pre-irradiation limits up to 200 Krad(Si). Output Current Limit increased slightly throughout all test points up to 200Krad(Si) .

Radiation Source: Total dose was performed at the University of Massachusetts, Lowell, using a cobalt 60 radiation source. The dose rate was determined to be 178 Rads(Si)/sec. The total dose schedule can be found in Table I. III. Test Setup: All test samples were subjected to Group A Electrical Test in accordance with the device data sheet.

V. Summary: Reference voltage exhibited the most significant shifts due to irradiation. The reference voltage decreased with each successive dose. It is important to note however, that all devices maintained post irradiation output tolerance levels up to 300 Krad(Si). Line and load regulation shifts were very small and stayed within pre-irradiation limits throughout testing. Dropout voltage showed a slight increase with the majority of the shift occurring beyond 100 Krad(Si). Current Limit also increased by approximately 10 percent at 100 Krad(Si).
