Abstract :
This paper presents a review of radiation sensors; their basic principles and a possible use as built-in sensors in integrated circuits exposed to ionizing radiation. Two radiation dosimeters are discussed: threshold and linear. All are CMOS circuits compatible with standard technology using pMOSFET sensors. An integrated dosimetry system including microprocessor interface for remote monitoring is described
