Total dose test results for the 8086 microprocessor

Journal Article · · IEEE Trans. Nucl. Sci.; (United States)
The 8086 microprocessor has been characterized for total dose response. Commercial and militarystandard devices implemented in HMOS II technology as well as commercial devices implemented in HMOS technology were tested. Functional failures were observed between 6.8 krad(Si) and 25.9 kra(Si). The effect of fabrication technology and of variation in clock frequency is discussed. Functional failure modes as determined by test software are listed.
