Description

Total-dose effects and room-temperature annealing behavior of bipolar digital-to-analog converter (DAC) irradiated by 60Co γ-rays were investigated. The results show that the response of the DAC is different between low- and high-dose-rate irradiation. It was found that the integrated circuits exhibit ELDRS and time dependence effect as well. Based on the space charge model, possible mechanism for this response is discussed. (authors)
