Abstract:
Over a 10 year operating period, the CMS Hadron Calorimeter (HCAL) detector will be exposed to radiation fields of approximately 1 kRad of total ionizing dose (TID) and a neutron fluence of 4El 1 n/cm2 • All front-end electronics must be qualified to survive this radiation environment with no degradation in performance. In addition, digital components in this environment can experience singleevent upset (SEU) and single-event latch-up (SEL). A measurement of these single-event effects (SEE) for all components is necessary in order to understand the level that will be encountered. Radiation effects in all electronic components of the HCAL front-end system have been studied. Results from these studies will be presented.
