Abstract :
A Cf-252 irradiation facility for single event testing of microcircuits has been developed. Testing techniques have been refined to include the capability of determining LET thresholds as well as event cross-sections. The capabilities and limitations of Cf-252 in testing to provide parameters for calculation of SEU rate in the heavy ion environment of space are discussed.
