SBOK061 October 2022 SN54SLC8T245-SEP
The purpose of this study is to characterize the effects of heavy-ion irradiation on the single-event latch-up (SEL) and single-event transient (SET) performance of the SN54SLC8T245-SEP, 8-bit dual-supply bus transceiver. Heavy-ions with an LETEFF of 43 MeV-cm2/mg were used to irradiate the devices with a fluence of 1 × 107 ions/cm2 for SEL and 1 × 106 ions/cm2 for SET. The results demonstrate that the SN54SLC8T245-SEP is SEL-free up to LETEFF = 43 MeV-cm2/mg at 125°C. SET characterization is presented and discussed for a variety of different operating conditions.
