Getting Started

When designing with the RHFAC32K1, ensure all unused inputs are tied to VDD or GND to prevent unintended oscillations in high-radiation environments. Engineers should consult the Radiation Data Log for specific Total Ionizing Dose (TID) thresholds and use the hermetic 14-CFlatPack footprint for high-reliability PCB layouts.
