Single-Event Effects (SEE) testing was conducted on the nVidia Jetson TX2 System on Chip (SOC). Testing was conducted at Massachusetts General Hospital's (MGH) Francis H. Burr Proton Therapy Center on June 2nd, 2019.
Single-Event Effects (SEE) testing was conducted on the nVidia GTX 1050 Graphics Processor Unit (GPU); herein referred to as device under test (DUT). Testing was conducted at Massachusetts General Hospital's (MGH) Francis H. Burr Proton Therapy Center on April 28th, 2018 using 200-MeV protons. This testing trip was purposed to provide additional radiation susceptibility data from payloads compiled in Q3FY18. While not all radiation-induced errors are critical, the effects on the application need to be considered. More so, failure of the device and an inability to reset itself should be considered detrimental to the application. Radiation effects on electronic components are a significant reliability issue for systems intended for space.
The purpose of this test is to assess the single event effects (SEE) and radiation susceptibility of the Intel Optane Memory device (SSD) containing the 3D Xpoint phase change memory (PCM) technology. This test is supported by the NASA Electronics Parts and Packaging Program (NEPP).
Single-Event Effects (SEE) testing was conducted on the nVidia GTX 1050 Graphics Processor Unit (GPU); herein referred to as device under test (DUT). Testing was conducted at Massachusetts General Hospitals (MGH) Francis H. Burr Proton Therapy Center on April 9th, 2017 using 200-MeV protons. This testing trip was purposed to provide a baseline assessment of the radiation susceptibility of the DUT as no previous testing had been conducted on this component.
