GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The 32K x 8 Radiation Hardened Static RAM is a high
performance 32,768 x 8-bit static random access memory
with industry-standard functionality. It is fabricated with
Honeywell’s radiation hardened technology, and is de-
signed for use in systems operating in radiation environ-
ments. The RAM operates over the full military temperature
range and requires only a single 5 V 10% power supply.
The RAM is available with either TTL or CMOS compatible
I/O. Power consumption is typically less than 50 mW/MHz
in operation, and less than 5 mW/MHz in the low power
disabled mode. The RAM read operation is fully asynchro-
nous, with an associated typical access time of 20 ns.

CMOS)technologyisradiationhardenedthroughtheuseof

twin-well CMOS technology with a 170 Å gate oxide and a
minimum drawn feature size of 0.8 µm (0.65 µm effective
gate length—Leff). Additional features include a three layer
interconnect metalization and a lightly doped drain (LDD)
structure for improved short channel reliability. High resis-
