EEPROM devices are especially critical in the design since they are used to upload the instruction to the microprocessors and other configurable devices (boot code of these parts); this is, as configuration memories. Also, they are used to store debugging information, which is key to depurate errors in configurable devices. Any modification of its content because of a bit error (1 to 0 or 0 to 1) due to radiation causes could lead to major consequences.

The radiation analysis is an essential document for the revision and approval of the components used within space equipment. This document includes in a single place all the information (data, assumptions and methods) and the results obtained when analyzing the radiation effects in the components used.
