The seventh Biological Effects of Ionizing Radiation (BEIR) report, sponsored by several federal agencies, assessed and updated the health risks from low linear energy transfer (low-LET) radiation, which deposits little energy in a cell and thus tends to cause little damage. The devices are characterized with total ionizing dose (TID) of greater than 100K Rad(Si), and single event effect (SEE) linear energy transfer (LET) of heavy ions greater than 82 MeV. The RAD-Hard ULDOs are characterized to single event effect (SEE), with a linear energy transfer (LET) of 84MeV/(mg per square cm), as well as total ionizing dose (TID) of up to 1Mrad (Si) and enhanced low dose rate sensitivity (ELDRS) of up to 500krad (Si) in accordance with MIL-STD-883, Method 1019. |
