Abstract :
The authors summarize four years of single-event-upset test results on a wide range of devices and technologies using Californium-252 having an average linear energy transfer of 43 MeV/(mg/cm2). Sensitivity variations are highlighted, particularly for nominally identical devices. The significance of the testing and test data with respect to recent devices and technologies is discussed
