GENERAL DESCRIPTION
A major emphasis in Honeywell’s packaging program is the
use of multichip modules (MCMs). Use of multichip mod-
ules will result in higher density packaging of integrated
circuits (ICs) and components, lower weight and volume
associated with size reduction, higher performance due to
a decrease in interconnect length, and additional improve-
ment with new material systems. Honeywell has had a
leading role in the development and application of space
qualified multichip modules for the last 14 years. In con-
junction with the basic technology, we have also developed
the necessary tools and methodology for the design of
MCMs, Known Good Die (KGD) testing, materials/pro-
cesses for assembly of MCMs, and test capability for MIL
STD and QML screening.
The 5M Memory Module is organized into two separate
64K x 40 memory banks. Each memory bank contains two
32K x 40 blocks, using five SRAMs each. The two banks
of memory are connected to different busses, making
them logically and physically separate within each bank.
Only one block is enabled and consuming power at any
given time. The die are packaged in a 200-pin 2.1" x 2.1" co-
fired substrate ceramic flat package.

SIGNAL DEFINITIONS
Signal definitions for an individual SRAM within the five chip 32K x 40 memory block are shown below.
A: 0 - 14
Address input pins (A) which select a particular eight bit word within the memory array.
A: 0-3 (Column Select)
A: 4-11 (Row Select)
A: 12-14 (Block Select)
DQ: 0 - 7
Bi-directional data pins which serve as data outputs during a read operation and as data inputs during a write
operation.
Negative chip select, when at a low level, allows normal read or write operation. When at a high level it
defaults the SRAM to a pre-charge condition and holds the data output drivers in a high impedance state.
All input signals except NCS and CE are disabled. The dynamic and DC IDD chip current contribution from
all other input circuits caused by input pins transitioning and/or at VDD or VSS is eliminated. If the NCS signal
is not used it must be connected to VSS.
Negative write enable, when at a low level activates a write operation and holds the data output drivers in
a high impedance state. When at a high level it allows normal read operation.
Negative output enable, when at a high level holds the data output drivers in a high impedance state. When
at a low level, the data output driver state is defined by NCS, NWE and CE. If the NOE signal is not used
it must be connected to VSS.
Chip enable, when at a high level, allows normal operation. When at a low level it forces the array to a pre-
charge condition, holds the data output drivers in a high impedance state and disables all the input buffers
except CE and NCS. The dynamic and DC IDD chip current contribution from all other input circuits caused
by input pins transitioning and/or not at VDD or VSS levels is eliminated. If the CE signal is not used it must
be connected to VDD.

RADIATION CHARACTERISTICS
Total Ionizing Radiation Dose
The memory module will meet all stated functional and
electrical specifications over the entire operating tempera-
ture range after the specified total ionizing radiation dose.
All electrical and timing performance parameters will re-
main within specifications after rebound at VDD = 5.5 V
and T =125°C extrapolated to ten years of operation. Total
dose hardness is assured by wafer level testing of process
monitor transistors and RAM product using 10 KeV X-ray
and Co60 radiation sources. Transistor gate threshold shift
correlations have been made between 10 KeV X-rays
applied at a dose rate of 1x10
5
rad(SiO
2
)/min at T = 25°C
and gamma rays (Cobalt 60 source) to ensure that wafer
level X-ray testing is consistent with standard military
radiation test environments.
Transient Pulse Ionizing Radiation
The memory module is capable of writing, reading, and
retaining stored data during and after exposure to a tran-
sient ionizing radiation pulse, up to the transient dose rate
upset specification, when applied under recommended
operating conditions.
The memory module will meet any functional or electrical
specification after exposure to the transient dose rate
survivability specification, when applied under recom-
mended operating conditions. Note that the current con-
ducted during the pulse by the RAM inputs, outputs, and
power supply may significantly exceed the normal operat-
ing levels. The application design must accommodate
these effects.
Neutron Radiation
The memory module will meet any functional or timing
specification after exposure to the specified neutron flu-
ence under recommended operating or storage conditions.
This assumes an equivalent neutron energy of 1 MeV.
Soft Error Rate
The memory module is immune to Single Event Upsets
(SEU) to the specified Soft Error Rate (SER), under recom-
mended operating conditions. This hardness level is de-
fined by the Adams 90% worst case cosmic ray environ-
ment for geosynchronous orbits.
Latchup
The memory module will not latch up due to any of the above
radiation exposure conditions when applied under recom-
mended operating conditions. Fabrication with the SIMOX
substrate material provides oxide isolation between adja-
cent PMOS and NMOS transistors and eliminates any
potential SCR latchup structures. Sufficient transistor body
tie connections to the p- and n-channel substrates are made
to ensure no source/drain snapback occurs.
