1 Scope
This part of GB/T 4937 performs 60Co gamma-ray source ionizing radiation on packaged semiconductor integrated circuits and semiconductor discrete devices.
The total dose test provides a test procedure.
This section provides an accelerated annealing test method to evaluate the effect of low dose rate ionizing radiation on the device. This annealing test for low dose rates
The application of radiation or devices that exhibit time-varying effects in certain applications is important.
This section applies only to steady-state irradiation and is not suitable for pulsed irradiation.
This section is primarily for military or space related applications.
This test may cause severe degradation of the electrical properties of the irradiated device and is therefore considered a destructive test.
2 Terms and definitions
The following terms and definitions apply to this document.
2.1
Ionizing radiation effectionizingradiationeffects
A change in electrical parameters of a discrete device or integrated circuit is caused by radiation induced charges.
Note. Also known as the total dose effect.
2.2
Testing in-fluxtest in irradiation
Electrical testing of the device during irradiation.
2.3
