Comparison of MIL-STD-1773 fiber optic data bus terminals: Single event proton test irradiation, in-flight space performance, and prediction techniques

Abstract

We present a comparison of proton single event ground test results for two generations of MIL-STD-1773 fiber optic data bus interface modules. Single event upset rate prediction techniques for fiber optic data systems are also demonstrated and compared with in-flight space performance.
