Overview

The RHFAC00K1 is a radiation-hardened quad 2-input NAND gate manufactured using STMicroelectronics' high-speed CMOS technology. This component is specifically designed for harsh environments, operating across a 2V to 6V supply range with a wide temperature tolerance of -55C to 125C. It is housed in a hermetic 14-pin Ceramic Flatpack (Flat-14) to meet the rigorous reliability standards of space and defense applications.

Why Choose This Part

This device offers high-speed performance comparable to standard 74AC series logic while providing the radiation latch-up (SEL) immunity required for space missions. The hermetic 14-CFlatPack packaging ensures long-term reliability against atmospheric contaminants and thermal cycling in vacuum environments.

Applications

Satellite Control Systems
Implementing fundamental logic operations in satellite on-board computers and command data handling units.
Launch Vehicle Avionics
Reliable signal gating and logic processing within flight control systems exposed to high radiation environments.
Deep Space Exploration
Critical logic circuitry for instruments and mission-critical hardware requiring high total ionizing dose (TID) resilience.
Nuclear Instrumentation
Logic control for monitoring equipment in high-radiation industrial or research facilities.
