Abstract :
Analog Transient Radiation Effects in Electronics (ATREE) induced by high dose-rate X-ray pulses are investigated using a flash X-ray facility. The ATREEs induced in a LM124 operational amplifier configured in three different bias configurations are investigated. A predictive methodology, based upon a previously developed ASET simulation tool, is used to model the ATREE phenomena. A semiempirical physical model is used to perform the correlation between the duration of the parasitic pulse signal induced in the LM124 and an equivalent value of the high dose-rate X-ray pulse level.
