Abstract

See full text

Apparatus and methods to detect degradation due to radiation exposure are described. An example method to detect circuit failure due to radiation exposure includes determining a current of a semiconductor device in an analog circuit, determining an amount of radiation to which the semiconductor device has been exposed based on the current, comparing the amount of radiation to a radiation dose threshold value, and indicating a degradation of the semiconductor device based on the comparison.
