Abstract :
This paper describes a field test system to evaluate the sensitivity of SRAMs to the natural radiation coming from the interaction of cosmic rays with the atmosphere. Unlike other experiments, this system is optimized to be portable and autonomous in order to allow making the development of the tests more flexible.
