  • Abstract
    The aim of this paper is to examine the reliability of EPROM and EEPROM components under the influence of gamma radiation. This problem is significant for military industry and space technology. Total dose results are presented for the JL 27C512D EPROM and 28C64C EEPROM components. There is evidence that EPROM components have better radioactive reliability than EEPROM components. Also, the EPROM´s changes are reversible and after erasing process and reprogramming EPROM components are functional. On the other hand EEPROM´s changes are irreversible and under the influence of gamma radiation all EEPROM components became permanently nonfunctional. The obtained results are analyzed and explained via the interaction of gamma radiation with oxide layers.
