Aerospace & Defense RAD-Hard MOSFETs

Military and Space applications provide a unique challenge for today’s system designers. Space hardware must operate in extreme environmental conditions including exposure to severe ionizing radiation which necessitates the use of radiation- hardened components. International Rectifier, with it’s proprietary RAD-Hard MOSFET processes has been meeting this challenge for over 20 years. With the introduction of the first RAD-Hard MOSFET in 1985 to its latest generation of devices, IR has continually exceeded engineers expectations.
