Abstract

For a complex-functional device such as a microcontroller (MC), the possibility of using built-in debugging tools to control internal blocks under the influence of ionizing radiation is investigated. The values of the cross sections for single event upsets in various MC blocks, produced under 14 MeV neutron irradiation, are estimated. Characteristic areas of MC dysfunction under the influence of a bremsstrahlung pulse has been determined.
