DESCRIPTION:
Maxwell Technologies’ HSN-1000 radiation-hardened Hybrid Nuclear Event Detector (NED) senses ionizing radiation pulses generated by a nuclear event, such as the detonation of a nuclear weapon, and rapidly switches its output from the normal high state to a low state with a propagation delay time of less than 20ns.
FEATURES:
• Detects ionizing radiation pulses
• 100% tested/certified detection threshold level
• Adjustable circumvention period
• 100% testable with built-in test
• Detection threshold adjustability
• Single +5V operation
• Radiation hardness guaranteed
• Compliant to MIL-PRF-38534 Class H1
• Flat pack (F) or DIP (L) packages
RADIATION HARDNESS CHARACTERISTICS:
• Dose Rate (operate-through): 1 x 1012 rad(Si)/sec
• Total Dose: 1 x 106 rad(Si)
• Neutron Fluence: 5 x 1013 n/cm2
• Approximate Detection Range: 2 x 105 - 2 x 107 rad(Si)/sec
• Maxwell Technologies Specified, Controlled, Tested and Guaranteed
