Test System for the Experimental Evaluation of a Low-Power High Performance Four-Channel ADC for Space Applications
摘要
This paper presents the test system developed to evaluate the static and dynamic parameters of a prototype four-channel, high performance, low power, analog-to-digital converter (QUAD-ADC) exposed to Total Ionization Dose (TID). Additionally, the integration of the device into a test platform developed for SEE characterization is presented, along with the results of the device’s resistance to high-energy ion impacts. The ADC features a pipeline architecture, operates at 80 MSps, and is specifically designed for use with scientific instrumentation in space applications and environments exposed to radiation.
