Single event effects (SEE)

The HCC logic series is characterized under heavy ions through four test vehicles, representative of all the

products with the same functional specification as described in Table 2. HCC series, SEE class summary. The

SEE class of each product is also provided in Table 2. HCC series, SEE class summary. The SEE performance of

any HCC device of the series is the performance of the class it belongs to.
