Abstract :
The impact of Total Ionizing Dose on a typical current feedback amplifier, the AD844 irradiated with 60Co source is investigated. The positive input current and the output voltage present an erratic behavior, that may differ from sample to sample. Circuit analysis is conducted in order to determine the degradation mechanisms.
