Abstract

In modern High Energy Physics Experiments the electronics modules for controlling and/or data acquisition are very often exposed to high neutron radiation. It's well known that it can cause many failures during work of such systems, even total break downs. In such case, the studies of radiation sensitivity of electronic devices should take place to avoid problems during the lifetime of the experiments. This article describes the Single Event Effects (SEE) tests of Xilinx Spartan3 XC3S400 FPGA populated on Altium Live Design Evaluation Board. The results of the tests are presented and discussed. Additionaly gamma-ray spectrometry analysis of the board has been performed.
