Success on development of the αRD124Under the contract with ESA, the development of the αRD124A - Quad Operational Amplifier (link to datasheet) has been successfully completed. The test of prototypes for radiation resistance by the method of Total Ionization Dose (TID), Low Dose Rate (LDR) set was completed successfully. TID LDR test of αRD124A for 450Krad showed positive results on all parameters, performance better than equivalents of USA manufactures. Nevertheless, according to specification, it needed to perform test up to 150Krad, in order to understand borders of our technology and test the IC for its stability, the decision was made to achieve TID LDR dose 450Krad.
