DESCRIPTION:
Maxwell Technologies' 54HC4050 high speed CMOS Logic
Hex Non-Inverting Buffers features a greater than 100 krad(Si)
total dose tolerance, depending upon space mission. These
parts have a modified input protection structure that enables
them to be used as logic level translators which will convert
high-level logic to a low-level logic while operating off the lowlevel logic supply. For example, 15V input pulse levels can be
down-converted to 0V to 5V logic levels. The modified input
protection structure protects the input from negative electrostatic discharge. The 54HC4050 can be used as simple buffers or inverters without level translation.
Maxwell Technologies' patented R
ogy incorporates radiation shielding in the microcircuit package. It eliminates the need for box shielding while providing
the required radiation shielding for a lifetime in orbit or space
mission. In a GEO orbit, R
krad (Si) radiation dose tolerance. This product is available
with screening up to Class S.
