Laser diodes characterization can be complex due to the laser’s nature. A good heat dissipation must be provided to avoid lasers being damaged. Unique and challenging equipment is required for a perfect characterization because accuracy is a must with this optical component. The real challenge? The test setup definition and implementation when lasers must be tested in extreme conditions, like vacuum or high/low temperatures.

Microchip’s AVR8 ATmegaS64M1/ATmegaS128 and ARM32 M7 SAMV71Q21 Flight Models (FM) are available in ceramic package with screening equivalent to QML class Q and QML class V quality levels. Engineering samples are available as well. Developing radiation-hardened systems for space applications means long lead times and high cost toward achieving the necessary levels of reliability for multi-year missions in harsh environments.

Commercial parts will have TID ranges between 3-30 krad(Si)and SEL and SEU ranges between 1-120 MeV. Of course, commercial parts are not designed with radiation performance in mind. Nevertheless, a few commercial ICs have in fact exhibited acceptable radiation hardened characteristics.
